Dynamically add ViewMenu [message #1278422]

Hi all,
I want to Dynamically add ViewMenu to Part from PartDescriptor
Here is my code in Xtend:

@Inject
MPart part

...

descriptor = modelService.getPartDescriptor(id)
...
val menuCopy = EcoreUtil.copyAll(descriptor.menus)
part.menus.clear
part.menus += menuCopy

but after adding menus to part nothing happen.
What is right way to add ViewMenu to Part dynamically?

Best regards,
Dmitriy.

Hi,

Adding to the descriptor will only have an effect when the part is
opened the next time from this PartDescriptor. To show up as a ViewMenu
you also have to have the Menu-Entry tagged with "ViewMenu".

You need to update the menu of the current part to have an immediate
effect on the current part.

Looking at the code I see that we are not yet tracking the update to the
part menu currently so adding a ViewMenu entry dynamically we are not
reacting on that change.

So file a bugzilla and we'll fix this in 1.0.0!
