Disclaimer: I'm writing on behalf of Rabea. Package Explorer and Project Explorer miss the actions on context-menu to create new JDT elements like classes, packages... This seems to be a regression in Photon.
This is specific for the Debug Perspective.

I don't see these options in Package Explorer in Eclipse Oxygen.2 (4.7.2) also in the Debug perspective.
Sorry Noopur, just checked it myself. You are right it didn't work in Oxygen. I have the feeling that it did work at a point but maybe I'm wrong and it's just because of the new perspective Layout which makes me feel im in the Java perspective (which is great). Consider this as a feature request: The "New.." actions should be according to the project nature no matter what perspective is selected.

I support this proposal. It seems to me that Project Explorer at least have everything in place for that and JDT extensions seem correct. It could be either a simple missing thing or a bug more than an actual new development. It would be good to compare with other *DT to verify whether it's a JDT extension or a package explorer issue.
