Hello

I'm developing a plug-in and I've recently added a command button in the toolbar of eclipse . First I was working with actions and then I've been told that it's preferable to work with commands .

The problem is that I want my command to be placed in the group of ( debug, run , run last tool ) specifically at the end . I managed to do this with actions using this path :
Quote:

toolbarPath="org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchActionSet/debug"


I really don't know the equivalent of this path when working with commands
here is the code for the addition of the command :

<extension
         point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
      <menuContribution
            locationURI="toolbar:org.eclipse.ui.main.toolbar">
         <toolbar
               id="org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchActionSet">
                              
         </toolbar>
      </menuContribution>
      <menuContribution
            locationURI="toolbar:org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchActionSet">
         <command
               commandId="id"
               icon="icons/.....png"
               label="label"
               style="push">
            <visibleWhen
                  checkEnabled="true">
            </visibleWhen>
         </command>
      </menuContribution>
   </extension>
   <extension
         point="org.eclipse.ui.commands">
      <command
            defaultHandler="idHandler"
            id="id"
            name="name">
      </command>
   </extension>


I want also to do the same thing for the Run menu and I have the same problem for the location .

Quote:
menubarPath="org.eclipse.ui.run/relaunchGroup"


what are the equivalents for the locationURI of my command ?

Thanks so much for your help Smile

Eclipse supports before, after and endof. So the locationURL will be:
toolbar:<toolbar id>?endof=<separator id>

Menu contributions are applied before actionSets. That means if you
want to co-exist with an actionSet menu you must define the menu as a
menu contribution.

For the toolbar, in theory if you create a toolbar with the same id as
the actionSet toolbar, your item will show up there. You'll have to do
research to see what the actionSet toolbar looks like without your
contribution.

hello Paul !

Thanks for your answer ! but sorry, I didn't understand what you mean Sad
I used the plug-in Menu spy ( alt+shift+F2 )
and I got this
toolbar:org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchActionSet?after=org.eclipse.debug.internal.ui.actions.DebugDropDownAction


Please explain me what should I do exactly and thanks so much

Try creating a menu contribution that contains a toolbar with the same ID

the most control you can get in a system that interacts with both menu
contributions and actionSets is to create the toolbar and any groups in
the menuContribution. The (hopefully) won't get replicated when the
actionSet is visible.

You probably need to look at the toolbarPath of what is contributed to
the actionSet to guess what the groups in that actionSet toolbar are
going to be.
