Adding item to JSP popup Menu - what TargetId? [message #164132]

I'm trying to add a popup menu to the JSP editor (and the other sse
editors). Back in mid-October the targetID for viewerContributions for the
jsp editor was rumored to be

org.eclipse.jst.jsp.core.jspsource.source.EditorContext

Is that correct for wst 1.0.0 (it doesn't seem to work for me)?

Previously I was using

org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui.StructuredTextEditor.context

but that doesn't work in 1.0.0 either.

Will the targetID change in 1.5?

If you don't know the answer, but can tell me where to look for the answer
in the code I'd be grateful for that as well.

Thanks

By WST 1.0, do you really mean WTP 1.0? WST would not have any JSP in
it. But yes,
targetID="org.eclipse.jst.jsp.core.jspsource.source.EditorContext "
should be working.

What does your definition look like? For example, the following worked
for me:
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus">
<viewerContribution
targetID="org.eclipse.jst.jsp.core.jspsource.source.EditorContext "
id="org.eclipse.jst.jsp.examples.tld.context.actions">
<action
label="Convert To Entities"
class=" org.eclipse.jst.jsp.examples.tld.ConvertToEntitiesActionDele gate "
menubarPath="additions"
id=" org.eclipse.jst.jsp.examples.tld.ConvertToEntitiesActionDele gate ">
</action>
</viewerContribution>
</extension>

Thanks, your example made me look at my menu path and I realized I simply
got it wrong. The targetID was OK.

A related rant: I have a generic text-processing plugin that works in any
text-oriented editor. Every time someone adds a new such editor or changes
the target IDs I need to chase down this info in random locations and then
update my plugin.xml. This isn't much fun. I'm sure any general solution to
this problem would be complicated, but I would be happy to see one!

Thanks for your help!
