| Command Contribution to Form Editor toolbar -- possible? [message #486727] |

I use the FormToolkit in my Editor. Is there any way to declaratively fill/adjust that toolbar? As best I can tell, there does not seem to be. I tried a similar approach to adding to the View (menuContribution for toolbar:<editorID>), but nothing shows up -- and none of the docs or blogs I've read ever discuss being able to do this.
If it is possible, please enlighten me. If not, is there a way, using Categories or something else to declaratively identify the contents, then programmatically get that "container" and iterate over its contents, adding IContributionItems using form.getToolbarManager().add(IContributionItem)? I'm assuming they will behave (enableWhen) based on their Handlers still?
Thanks...Millard

Millard,
I don't know if the following is best practise, but I've implemented
menucontributions in a forms header within a viewpart with the following:
public void createPartControl(final Composite parent) {
...create controls, form, etc...
this.form.getToolBarManager().add(new
Separator(IWorkbenchActionConstants.MB_ADDITIONS));
IMenuService menuService = (IMenuService)
getSite().getService(IMenuService.class);
menuService.populateContributionManager((ContributionManager )
getToolbarManager(),
"formheading:" + getSite().getId()); //$NON-NLS-1$
this.form.getToolBarManager().update(true);
}
Afterwards you can use a locationURI "formheading:myViewId?after=additions"
I'm pretty sure this can be adopted to editorparts.
Cheerz

The with element is for accessing variables ... see org.eclipse.ui.ISources for a list of the main supported ones.
If your editor is supplying the object as its selection, then you can access it through "selection". if not, then you either have to 1) write a provider to provide your variable or 2) use a property tester on your editor that can access the object you want.
