I'm working on eclipse kepler RCP application.
I want to contribute to trimbar through ToolControl.
With E4 tool i got following option:

index.php/fa/15464/0/

In above image My problem is:

1. Which class I have to add it here.?
Is this call needs to implement some interface or extend any class. I tried alot on internet but cruelness to find any thing.

What i tried yet Created class with following combination.

1. by extending WorkbenchWindowControlContribution class
2. by extending ToolControlImpl class

In 1st case constructor is called but createControl(Composite parent) is not called.
In 2nd nothing is called.

Please tell me what i'm missing here.

Thanks.
