Like bug 451962 and bug 452009, tooltips currently don't work for menu items in the shell menubar on Windows. The attached patch should be released to show this in the APIs and in the ControlExample.

This caused 1 compile warning for GTK and Mac in our build:
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/N20141217-2000/testResults.php

1. WARNING in _64/src/org/eclipse/swt/widgets/MenuItem.java
 (at line 15)
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*;
The import org.eclipse.swt.widgets is never used

Oops, I guess I got tricked by Content Assist in a .java file that's not on the classpath. When I press Ctrl+Space after "{@link Shell" and then choose the Shell proposal, then an unused import gets added (MenuItem is already in that package):
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*;

Fixed with http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.swt.git/commit/?id=7581757358232d25370c9b0fe0eaa59fd24fa1f8
