Thank You Norbert,

Now I an trying to contribute to my pwn extension point in another Plugin
I have created an extension point and also an interface for the same.

My interface extennds IExecutableExtension and my extension point plugin is
basically trying to add its own Menu to the existing workbench of the
contributer Plugin.

So in the contributer side I extended the extension and the parameter class
of my contributer is implementing my interface.

I am not getting if i m worng in implementation.
But when i run contributer Plugin at runtime i get an Error tht no class
definition found for the "extension point" class.
This extension point class is already added to my build path too.

Can anyone please help me with this

  Anisha,

  looks to me like you did not use the correct way to set the dependency of
  the test plugin on com.ibm.lab.slon.extensionpoint.

  - Set com.ibm.lab.slon.extensionpoint as a plugin dependency in
  com.ibm.lab.slon.extensionpoint.test.
  -- Open com.ibm.lab.slon.extensionpoint.test/plugin.xml in the manifest
  editor (which is the standard editor for plugin.xml).
  -- In the editor, go to the "Dependencies" tab and click Add.
  -- Choose the plugin which defines the extension point
  (com.ibm.lab.slon.extensionpoint) from the list.
  -- Save and close plugin.xml.
  - Now remove the com.ibm.lab.slon.extensionpoint_1.0.0.jar from the java
  project's build path.
  -- Open the project properties, select "Java Build Path" and then the
  "Libraries" tab
  -- Remove the reference to the com.ibm.lab.slon.extensionpoint_1.0.0.jar.

  After this the com.ibm.lab.slon.extensionpoint content is not only
  available to the java compiler but also to the other services of the PDE,
  such as the manifest editor, which will now let you add new toolActions
  under your extension point.
