Get menu button with specific id [message #1714277]

Hi all,

I add a menu button using plugin extension. And I want to manage that button with the specific ID that is defined in plugin.xml.

 <extension
        point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
     <menuContribution
           locationURI="toolbar:org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.ui.tabbar?after=additions">
        <command
              commandId="stopCommand"
              icon="icons/tool/stop.gif"
              id="stopCommand"
              tooltip="Stop Application">
        </command>
     </menuContribution>
</extension>

Could anyone tell me how to get the list of all button with the same Id "stopCommand"? I want to edit the button (change icon, set text, set tooltip) anywhere.

Best Regards,
Tuan Hoang

Changing the icon, text, and tooltip are the preserve of the command's current handler: remember that with the command/handler paradigm, another more-applicable handler may be bound to "your" command. Cause your handler to implement IElementUpdater. And call ICommandService.refreshElements(commandId) when a situation arises that you need to trigger updates on possible UI bindings of the command.

Hope that helps.

Brian.
