A context menu extension point is used to add context menu items to the WebSphere® MQ Explorer.
The following code extract is taken from the file, plugin.xml, from the simple plug-in and shows a basic implementation of the context menu extension point.
Additional context menu items are added using the Eclipse extension point org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus. The <visibility> attribute in the above extract contains the elements that control the conditions under which the context menu item is displayed. These conditions include tests on the plug-in state, the type of object, and the state of the object. For example, a content menu item can be displayed for local queues only, or for remote queue managers only.
