Dynamically extend an extension point [message #290564] Fri, 26 August 2005 12:31

Hi experts,

is there any possibility to extend an extension point and to dynamically
provide the required information?

My problem:
I have a plugin MyPlugin and I have several extension points and extenders
MyExtenders. I'd like to contribute e.g. to the filter popup via
org.eclipse.jdt.ui.javaElementFilters. But the concrete filters are
provided by the extenders of MyPlugin. I don't want myExtenders to
directly extend the Eclipse extension point
org.eclipse.jdt.ui.javaElementFilters.

What I would wish is:
* instantiate the CustomFiltersActionGroup
* provide the filters programatically calling somewhat like
addFilter(ViewerFilter) and no declarative extension

The same question for extension points like poupMenus

Is there anything I can do?

Thank you,
Federico
