I am using “eclipse-rcp-helios-SR1-win32-x86_64”
64-bit eclipse running on JDK.
I am trying to add an action in my plugin via menu contribution. When I add “org.eclipse.ui.menus,” right-click on it then select “New,” I only the “Generic” option. I am expecting to see “menuContibution”
The issue is described in detail here, which also seems to include the solution: link
From what I understand, the version of eclipse I have – helio SR1 – is an SDK version and should have the source included in the package. I am not sure what I need to do to make those additional options show up.
if you have the “Generic” it means that you don’t have the source plugins. But you have downloaded the right package (RCP one). I guess your download might be corrupted. Can you try downloading it again from a different mirror?
