Description vidhvan CLA 2010-06-30 05:13:20 EDT 
Build Identifier: 

In a custom RCP application, there are no entries in the submenus combo(Shortcuts Tab) of customize perspective dialog.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an RCP Application using "RCP Application with a view" template.
2. In ApplicationWorkbenchWindowAdvisor-> preWindowOpen(), add the line "configurer.setShowPerspectiveBar(true);" 
3. Launch the application and open customize perspective dialog(right-click on Perspective button-> Customize).
4. In the shortcuts tab, there are no entries in the submenus combo, pressing "Ok" button throws NPE and the dialog won't close.

I'm pretty sure we fixed this. See bug 284558.

Please try with 3.6.

Tested with "Build id: 20100617-1415". NPE is gone but the entries are still missing.

Which entries are missing?  That combo will only contain entries if the corresponding menu actions are instantiated in the ActionBarAdvisor.
