Hi,

Could someone tell me how to contribute a dynamic menu like the
ContributionItemFactory.REOPEN_EDITORS from a plugin using an actionset
declared in the plugin.xml?

Thanks in advance,
Long

You cannot do it using actionSets.

But in 3.3 and on you can use org.eclipse.ui.menus and the dynamic
element to supply a subclass of CompoundContributionItem.
