If this action is being contributed via an action set (which I hope it is, since that's the only way to do this through API), then you will need to manually enable it for any existing perspectives. This is a known problem. The problem here appears to be with action sets getting slammed after the extensions in the plugin.xml is read. Reassigning and attaching the file drag example. BTW if you use the same example in a fresh Eclipse the new entry shows up no problem. Created attachment 4648 [details]
File drag example
This is the known problem where the workbench does not update when new plugins are installed after being run at least once. If you close the perspective and reopen again, you will see the action. Or you can reset the perspective. Well, fix it. ;-} Install instructions: 1. Install plugin. 2. Close all open perspectives and re-open them. Pfui. |
