Definitive example of SubMenus [message #165108]

Does anyone have an Plugin XML example of nested sub menus for a popup
menu??? Something similar to the search popup menu. I cannot figure out
the whole Action/ActionSet/menu-path thing. I can't do it via the Plugin
XML Schema editor either

The online help (Platform Plugin Developer Guide) is very good
about this. Did you read it first?

Looked through it extensively...hints....suggestions...twisty paths with
dead ends. I cannot find a concrete example of submenus. I have found
various requests for this info using online search at eclipse.irg, just
haven't found source.

The online help that comes with Eclipse has a whole chapter on menu
and toolbar paths under Plug-in Developer Guide -> Plugging into
the workbench.

The chapters and example all cover one level of menus off the popup, I
would like to have 2 or 3 levels off the popup menu. I have tried a
seemingly infinite number of possible menu paths, actopns, actionsets etc.
The xml schema editor does not seem to allow N levels of menus either.
If its not possible then I would like to know. If it is possible...I
would like to see the XML.

I tried myself some more and although the path syntax lends itself
to arbitrary menu depth quite naturally, I am afraid you are correct
that this is not implemented yet. I saw a posting on the internet to
that effect but the email of the poster was blanked out, so it is
impossible to ascertain who he is and whether the answer was authori-
tative.

I have opened a new, more explicitely title thread in the platform forum.
Maybe we'll get a firm answer. If not, I'll submit a bug. This is of
interest to me, too.
