Hi,
I have added a viewerContribution in my plugin that targets the
CompilationUnitEditor in eclipse. What I want is something similar to the
'Open Declaration' menu that appears in the popup menu in the java editor
in that I want the IJaveElement that is present in the location where the
cursor/the menu is right clicked. Right now I am using getJavaElement(int
offset) but this only work if you make a selection to get the offset first.

I have noticed that there is no such requirement for the 'open
declaration' menu option. So I would be happy if someone can tell me how
to do this. I tried to find the implementation of the 'Open Declaration'
menu option but couldnt. Even a link to the code would do.

Thanks,
Ximor.
