Interface IActionContributor

All Known Implementing Classes:

TextActionContributor, XMLActionContributor

public interface IActionContributor

Contributor to global bars like menu, status line, tool bar, cool bar and to local bars like context menu. Contribution to global bars must be by IMultiViewActions stored in global registry. Reason is: when focus changes, actions are moved to active EditorPart (if is some active) and contribution by old active IEditor are removed. All actions contributed to global bars must have ids. Contribution to local context menu is done by creation of context menu and contributing to it by method contributeToContextMenu. In method init acquires global action registry for all open IEditors in all open EditorSites.
