HostAccessActionBarAdvisor

An Eclipse ActionBarAdvisor class is responsible for configuring the action bars (toolbar, coolbar, menu bar, status line) for a workbench window. An implementation of this class is provided for you in the ZIETrans RCP runtime extension plug-in. This class, HostAccessActionBarAdvisor, creates the actions on the menu bar, including the items under the File menu.

Table 1 lists the methods can be implemented or extended by the HostAccessActionBarAdvisor class.

Table 1. HostAccessActionBarAdvisor Class methods
Method	Description
makeActions(IWorkbenchWindow window)	Action objects should be created and initialized in this method.
fillMenuBar(IMenuManager)	Populates the workbench window's menu bar with menus and submenus. The current implementation of this method creates and populates File, Window, and Help menus. To hide an action that is already showing on the menu, avoid adding it to the MenuManager. For example, to hide the Print action, remove the following line from `fillMenuBar()` method: `fileMenu.add(printAction);` Note: The `fillMenuBar()` method is only applicable if the workbench's IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer indicates that the menu bar should be shown.
fillCoolBar(ICoolBarManager)	Populates the workbench window's cool bar with items. Note: The `fillCoolBar()` method is only applicable if the workbench's IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer indicates that the cool bar should be shown.
