IMenuService not works with eclipse 4.2 (seems bug?) [message #895455]

IMenuService menuService = (IMenuService) getSite().getService(IMenuService.class);
menuManager = new MenuManager();
menuService.populateContributionManager(menuManager, "popup:testview");
menuManager.createContextMenu(composite);
menuManager.update(true);
control.setMenu(menuManager.getMenu());

upper code let other plugins can contribute some menu items on specific control with "popup:testview" menu URI.

It works with eclipse 3.7 or below, not works with eclipse Juno

I investigated WorkbenchMenuService#populateContributionManager()
and, It's EMPTY!

/* (non-Javadoc)
 * @see org.eclipse.ui.menus.IMenuService#populateContributionManager(org.eclipse.jface.action.ContributionManager, java.lang.String)
 */
public void populateContributionManager(ContributionManager mgr, String location) {
	// TODO Auto-generated method stub

}

is there anyone can explain this?

I had the similar situation the other week. I populate Form Section's toolbars via the IMenuService, and I could not get it to work either, but it works perfectly in 3.7.
