[news.eclipse.tools] Re: R09 Question on nameFilter in popupMenus

["Nick Edgar" <nick_edgar@xxxxxxx>]

Soonthorn,

Unfortunately the nameFilter does not currently support OR-style combination
of patterns.
I've filed a problem report for this.

As a workaround, you could define separate objectContribution's for *.1 and
*.2.
The spec for nameFilter says that the contribution will not appear if the
pattern does not match, so the action should show up at most once.
