RE: [dsdp-tm-dev] Fwd: filtering out the appearance of context menuover

Hello Vrushnali,

I think the recommended way for contributing menu items with complex enablement conditions (like checking a parent folder) is to use the
org.eclipse.ui.menus extension point, with visibleWhen markup and
a Property Tester

For getting started, you might find the EclipseCon 2007 presentation helpful:
http://www.eclipsecon.org/2007/index.php?page=sub/&id=3692
and lots of good examples come on the Eclipse Wiki:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Menu_Contributions

You might want to ask in the org.eclipse.platform newsgroup for more
help using the ui.menus and propertyTester extensions.
