Add Save Action into Editor Toolbar [message #632809]

Hey guys, I am trying to add the save action into my editors toolbar but for some reason it won't show up.

Here is what I did.

1. Create the editor.

2. Add a 'menus' extension

3. add a menu contributuion with target = toolbar.editorID

4. add the save command (id=org.eclipse.ui.file.save)

What's wrong with that.

toolbar:de.c1wps.geneal.hpa.oa.tool.ActivityEditor

de.c1wps.geneal.hpa.oa.tool.ActivityEditor is the ID of the editor.

I don't think editor toolbars are supported, not unless you can create
them through a menuContribution first (before the editor action bar
contributor does).

a menuContribution to toolbar:org.eclipse.ui.main.toolbar (figure out
the correct location for before or after) and include a toolbar element
with the ID you want.

That's the only thing I can think of that *might* work. But how
EditorActionBars contribute their editor toolbar to the main coolbar
involves use of SubContributionManager type wrappers.
