While adding / updating any extension in Eclipse Plug-in Editor, many times you may have seen that you add an extension point and right click on it > New > Shows only “Generic”.
For example, in tutorials available on web you will see something like this:
But in your IDE you will only get the Generic option. Also many other extension options are missing.
Solution: Get the source for the corresponding plugins. One way is to download the eclipse with source included. But that can be too length process. Another quick fix is using Eclipse 'Install new Software' wizard:
- Go to Help - Install new Software
- Select the helios (corresponding) site
- In the filter box type: Eclipse RCP Plug-in Developer Resources
- Select the filtered option displayed and install.
- Restart Eclipse and you should get the proper options while working with Extensions
