Is it possible to extend a context menu that is created programmatically by RTC?
Hi, I'd like to add an "Restore" item to the history view of RTC. Unlucky, after debugging, I found the context menu is created programmactically by "com.ibm.team.process.internal.ide.ui.history.ProcessHistoryPage" and no matter how I config my plugin.xml, the new item will only appear in the eclipse common context menu. I know this is a eclipse development question, but wanna to check with you experts to see if there's any solution. Thanks in advance!
Attach my plugin.xml here as well
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus">
<objectContribution
objectClass="com.ibm.team.process.common.IProcessContainer"
id="SimplePopupMenu.contribution1">
<action
label="Restore"
class="processtemplaterestore.popup.actions.NewAction"
menubarPath="additions"
enablesFor="1"
id="SimplePopupMenu.newAction">
</action>
</objectContribution>
</extension>

Let me clarify my question with more details. In the RTC component, it creates the popup menu in following way
MenuManager menuMgr = new MenuManager("#PopupMenu");
Action openFile = new Action(....);
menuMgr.add(openFile);
Action compare = new Action(...);
menuMgr.add(compare);
Menu menu = menuMgr.createContextMenu(fViewer.getControl());
fViewer.getControl().setMenu(menu);
so that no matter how I configure my plugin.xml, my menu item won't appear in this context menu. Is it possible to write a plugin with startup extension to change this popup menu during startup? or any other way to add my item in this menu?
