[news.eclipse.tools] Sharing A Menu

["Castor" <lovoni6@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everybody!

I have 3 plugins : X, Y, Z.
Y and Z have common Actions (A1 and A2)  and require X (import plugin X).
I'd like to have one Workbench Window Menu for the three plugins like this:
        MyMenu
                A1
                A2
                XA
                YA
                ZA

Where XA, YA, ZA are Actions specific to X, Y and Z.

When I define MyMenu, A1 and A2 in the plugin.xml file of X and try to use
then from Y and Z, it does not work.
When I define MyMenu, A1 and A2 in the plugin.xml file of Y and Z (with the
same Ids and menuBarPaths - Classes that handle A1 and A2 are in plugin X) I
do have them in the same menu but deplicated. Something like this:
        MyMenu
               XA
                ---
                A1
                A2
                YA
                ---
                A1        //duplicated
                A2        //duplicated
                ZA

Does someone know how to solve this problem?.
I'd also like to know why there is one extension point for menus and one for
actionsets.

Thanks for help.
