I ran into a weird issue where I was able to add menu items to the CDT
editor (or so I thought this is what it was). using the constant
<viewerContribution id="com.xxx..CDTPopupActions"
targetID="#CEditorContext">
where targetID #CEditorContext
BUT... recently the editor window seems to have changed (it now has a ruler
at the top, and the code is color highlighted) and now my pop up menu items
no longer appear... sigh... so I assume that the editor my menu was popping
up in before must have NOT been the CDT editor, though I had CDT installed.
ugggg.
Is #CEditorContext the correct define for right click context menu items, on
a source editor window such as test.cpp?
I have looked everywhere, trying to find where to get a list of
fragment.xml defines for adding menu items to various UI elements of CDT but
can't find any information anywhere.
any help is appreciated greatly
Thanks in Advance

LPEX has been the editor component used by IBM before QNX Team took over
the CDT project ownership. LPEX AFAIK is being abandoned for a long time
now, but as I saw in CVS its still under org.eclipse.cdt.old.
