All Implemented Interfaces:

org.eclipse.ui.IEditorActionBarContributor

public class LpexContextContributor

extends org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.BasicTextEditorActionContributor

Basic LPEX contributions to the Eclipse context.

Solution plugins using the LPEX plugin must extend this class in order to add their own Eclipse contributions. An LPEX-based editor plugin that has no contributions of its own must still use this class (or a class extending it) as the contributorClass in its plugin.xml (the editor definition of the "org.eclipse.ui.editors" extension point) in order to have the LPEX contributions appear in the workbench.

Subclasses may extend the following methods:

• contributeToMenu - extend to contribute to menu
• contributeToToolBar - extend to contribute to toolbar
• contributeToStatusLine - extend to contribute to status line
• setActiveEditor - extend to react to editor changes

Any extended method should also call its super. equivalent.
