Description Alex Blewitt

The examples for the 'popupMenu' encourage the use of the deprecated popupMenus extension point.

https://git.eclipse.org/c/pde/eclipse.pde.ui.git/tree/ui/org.eclipse.pde.ui.templates/templates_3.0/popupMenus

Although the code is in the PDE UI project, I think it should be the UI team who replace the popupMenu with an appropriate one for Eclipse 3.3+ instead of the deprectaed list

I would be interesting to have an automated test for PDE that would bootstrap all PDE templates in the workspace and that'd check that there is no warning in generated code.
