Examples: The following is an example of a marker resolution generator extension (note the sub-element and the way attributes are used):

 <extension point="org.eclipse.ui.markerResolution">
  <markerResolutionGenerator
   class="org.eclipse.ui.examples.readmetool.ReadmeMarkerResolutionGenerator"
   markerType="org.eclipse.ui.examples.readmetool.readmemarker">
   <attribute name="org.eclipse.ui.examples.readmetool.id" value="1234"/>
  </markerResolutionGenerator>
 </extension>

In the example above, a marker resolution generator is associated with markers of type org.eclipse.ui.examples.readmetool.readmemarker whose org.eclipse.ui.examples.redmetool.id attribute has a value of 1234.
