setText(String text) in MenuManager [message #78729]

Hi all,

I try to implement a multilanguage application. Everything works fine
except the menu.

There is no setText method in MenuManager to change dynamically the text
of my menu items... I though that I can override getText() method but I
did not found any method to update the menu text. It seems that the update
method of IContributionItem does not update the text...

Any suggestion ?

Thanks,

Emmanuel

Hi,

it seems you want to change the language of your application on the fly.
I don't think that this would be much sense as RCP (including JFace and
SWT) is conceptional not able to handle this. What you can do is to use
the I18n features of RAP to have a localized version of your
application. See
http://help.eclipse.org/help33/topic/org.eclipse.rap.help/he lp/html/advanced/internationalization.html

Hi,

hm I'm not sure, but you can get the Menu widget by
MenuManager#getMenu(). This in turn returns the List of children of type
MenuItem - this inherits Item#setText(). Maybe that helps.
