Description Dani Megert CLA 2010-05-27 07:53:41 EDT
3.6 RC2.

The Project Explorer is missing the 'Show In' context menu if an element inside a resource project is selected. This works fine if an element inside a Java project is selected.

Confirmed in Mars.1. The “Show in” item (which got a lot more useful with the addition of the “System Explorer” option) exists in the context menu in the Package Explorer or inside Java projects in the Project Explorer, but not in C, Maven, or plain projects in the Project Explorer.

And this also applies to the project itself.

Support for "ShowIn" action for Non-java projects and child resources.

Required changes for JDT. Since Project Explorer is showing the duplicate "ShowIn" menu after adding this support.

Can someone review the changes?
