Plugin context menu conditions [message #659054]

I have a plugin project going. I am able to add a command to the context menu but I would like to be able to execute some Java code to determine if the item should be added to the menu. Is that possible?

I've seen plenty of examples for checking for count and stuff...even if the element is an instandOf a specific class but I need to narrow it down even further. Does someone have any examples of how to point to a method of a Java class that will return true or false to determine whether to display the menu item?

Thanks for any help!
