<B>Examples of Extending MultiRosterView Context Menus</B>
</P>
</TD>
<TD vAlign=top width="70%">
The ECF MultiRosterView can now be easily extended with additional functionality.
To do this, all that is necessary is to implement the new Platform UI extension point:
<b>org.eclipse.ui.menus.menuContribution</b>. Here's an example that adds an URL
sharing capability to the MultiRosterView context menu, when a roster entry is
selected. The following is from the <b>org.eclipse.ecf.presence.collab.ui</b> plugin.
<p>
First, the extension declaration:
<pre>
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
<menuContribution
locationURI="popup:org.eclipse.ecf.presence.ui.MultiRosterView?before=additions">
<dynamic
class="org.eclipse.ecf.presence.collab.ui.URLShareRosterEntryContributionItem"
id="org.eclipse.ecf.presence.collab.ui.dynamic2">
</dynamic>
</menuContribution>
</extension>
</pre>
With this declaration, the following code will be invoked when the user clicks the
right menu button on a roster entry (from URLShareRosterEntryContributionItem):
<pre>
protected IAction[] makeActions() {
// check for Roster entry
final IRosterEntry entry = getSelectedRosterEntry();
IContainer c = getContainerForRosterEntry(entry);
// If roster entry is selected and it has a container
if (entry != null && c != null) {
final IChannelContainerAdapter channelAdapter = (IChannelContainerAdapter) c
.getAdapter(IChannelContainerAdapter.class);
// If the container has channel container adapter and is online/available
if (channelAdapter != null && isAvailable(entry)) {
URLShare tmp = URLShareRosterContributionItem.getURLShare(c
.getID());
// If there is an URL share associated with this container
if (tmp != null) {
final URLShare urlshare = tmp;
// Create action for sending
IAction action = new Action() {
public void run() {
// Actually send URL to selected user
urlshare.sendURL(entry.getRoster().getUser().getName(),entry.getUser().getID());
}
};
action
.setText(Messages.URLShareRosterEntryContributionItem_SEND_URL_MENU_TEXT);
action.setImageDescriptor(Activator.imageDescriptorFromPlugin(
Activator.PLUGIN_ID, Messages.URLShareRosterContributionItem_BROWSER_ICON));
// Return action for sending
return new IAction[] { action };
}
}
}
// Else return null...meaning we have no menu contribution to make
return null;
}
</pre>
