Did you start with Eclipse from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ ? What filename did you unzip to install eclipse? Did you install any other plugins? Is there anything in your error log that you can attach? <workspace>/.metadata/.log Also, if you leave the editor open an switch perspectives and back, does the menu appear? PW

BIRT All-In-One can be downloaded from: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/birt/downloads/drops/R-R1-4_2_0-201206131143/birt-report-designer-all-in-one-4_2_0.zip
In the WorkbenchMenuService class of e4, it doesn't implement the method populateContributionManager, so we can't get the menu items from the plugin extension points. And I look at the eclipse source code, the eclipse self also has the same problem. I don't know why e4 doesn't implement the method populateContributionManager, and I don't find any relative articles or bugs.

How is the Data menu being contributed? The standard use of org.eclipse.ui.menus should just work, as should even an actionSet. See also bug 366528 PW

I know the e4 application model can implement this function, but we don't want to depend the e4 framework.

We still plan to support IMenuService.populateContributionManager(*) so that will still work without looking to any new Eclipse4 functionality. It's just not fixed yet. Bug 366528 - [Compatibility] Implement IMenuService#populateContributionManager(*) PW

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
i think this is fixed.
