I have a requirement to provide a menu item that can have any number of
submenus off of it (the first level of dynamic menus) and each submenu can
have any number of options to select off of it (the second level of
dynamic menus). Is this possible in Eclipse 3.3? It doesn't seem
possible declaratively. Is it possible programatically?

Do you mean adding something to the main menu and then making it's
submenus (and their entries) dynamic?

I got the answer. Use MenuManager class for the dynamic "sub-menus"
branches and CommandContributionItem for dynamic leafs...

Thanks.
