Extension Point:
org.eclipse.ui.actionSetPartAssociations
Using this
extension point, we can hide or show related action set in eclipse workbench
when specific eclipse part like: Editor or View will be deactivated or activated.
Now I'm
implementing it with our existing Show View actionSet (id:
SampleCode.showView.actionSet) and existing Sample View (id:
SampleCode.view). After implementation,
if the Sample view is active/highlighted then only the Show View action set
will be visible otherwise this action set will be hidden. To implement in this
way, follow the below mentioned steps:
Make sure that, the "visible"
property of the selected action set should be default value, like below
screenshot:
 |
Action Set "visible" property is set to default value |
1. Add the
extension point in "Extensions" tab like below screenshot.
 |
Adding "actionSetPartAssociations" extension point |
2. After adding
this extension, add new
actionSetPartAssociation
and provide the
targetID* as
SampleCode.showView.actionSet which is
our existing action set id.
 |
Property of "actionSetPartAssociation" extension point |
3. After that, R-click on
"actionSetPartAssociation" -> New -> part. Provide the Sample
View id i.e. SampleCode.view
 |
Property of "part" |
4. Run the project. When the Sample View is
active, then action button and also menu item is shown like below screenshot:
 |
Output window when Sample View is activated |
And, when Sample View is inactive, then action
button and menu item is hide from eclipse toolbar as well as menu bar like
below screenshot:
 |
Output window when Sample View is inactive |
