All,
I've got a plugin trying to contribute ecf docshare to the popup menu of a
specific editor. I *think* I have the contextID of the editor correct, but I
can't be sure b/c it's not specified in the plugin.xml anywhere. it's a
commercial editor.
Here's what I have in my plugin xml:
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
<menuContribution
locationURI="popup:#com.adobe.flexbuilder.editors.mxml.MXMLCodeContext ">
<dynamic
class=" org.eclipse.ecf.internal.provisional.docshare.menu.DocShareR osterMenuContributionItem "
id="org.miz.mxmldocsharecontribution">
</dynamic>
</menuContribution>
</extension>
And I have all (I think) the required dependencies set up correctly in the
manifest. Still, the menu never gets added.
I'm wondering: is there a way to debug when something isn't added to the
popup menu? Or, is there a way to definitively get the proper popup
locationURI for any editor? I'm fairly certain that the menu is not being
contributed because when I set a breakpoint in the
DocShareRosterMenuContributionItem, it never trips. It does catch on other
editors where DocShare is working successfully, however.
Any help learning how to debug the guts of this thing is most appreciated.
