They are equivalent but not interchangeable. Looking at your extract, the
QuitAction class your example wishes to contribute doesn't appear to
implement IWorkbenchWindowActionDelegate as expected by the <action> tag
(ergo "ClassCastException"). Take a look at IDEWorkbenchAdvisor. It
creates the standard menus and has a lot of the code you can emulate for
your own menus and those contributed by Eclipse plug-ins that you may wish
to reuse (e.g., text editor plug-in assumes you've created the standard Edit
pulldown).
