Hello everybody,
I am trying to add an action to the
popup menu of the default text editor.
I found an example which does something
similar, but not quite what I want (the ReadmeTool),
it uses a self-created editor where it adds
something to the popup menu.
How do I do that on the existing editors?
There's a Help document about popup menus
which mentions the targetID of a viewerContribution.
It reads:
"The targetID specifies the view whose popup menu will be altered."
At this point I am stuck.
Which would be the correct targetID for my problem?
Dani

Dani,
finding the right targetID is somewhat tricky... One way to find them is by
looking at the code in the various editors, and search for calls to
AbstractTextEditor.setEditorContextMenuId(String):
Editor ContextMenuId
ClassFileEditor #ClassFileEditorContext
CompilationUnitEditor #CompilationUnitEditorContext
TextEditor #TextEditorContext
