[news.eclipse.platform.rcp] Re: Menu Contribution for RCP 
Hi,

im not sure if it works in your case but you can contribute actions by using RetargetActions and actionhandler.
For example ActionFactory.UNDO.create(window) creates an LabelRetargetAction which you can add to your menubar. But this action doesnt provide any logic. To define this any view (or maybe plugin) can define an actionhandler with the actions they should be performed.

UndoActionHandler undoHandler = new UndoActionHandler(getViewSite(),IOperationHistory.GLOBAL_UNDO_CONTEXT);
IActionBars actionBar = getViewSite().getActionBars();
actionBar.setGlobalActionHandler(ActionFactory.UNDO.getId(), undoHandler);

So it is possible to implement special behavior of an action for every view part.

May you use these technique to contribute your actions. But how i mentioned above: Im not sure :)

Best regards & Good luck
