Hi, Suresh.  You might want to try posting your question in 
eclipse.newcomer, which is a better forum for newcomers to Eclipse :-)

Since Eclipse is open source, one good way of answering questions like this 
is to find somewhere else in Eclipse where something similar to what you 
want happens, and then explore how it is achieved there.  For instance, you 
might look into how the "Run -> External Tools" menu item is implemented.
