Description Darin Wright CLA 2004-08-26 15:58:46 EDT 
Currently, the runtime workbench launch shortcut does not offer a contextual 
launch option. In 3.1, debug plans to deprecate perspective based luanching 
from the top-level "Run As>" menus, and replace it with context launching 
(selection based launching) - see bug 72517. This fix has been released to 
HEAD as a work in progress (pref setting "Run/Debug > Work in Progress > Use 
contextual launch in top-level run menus").

With this fix, there is no longer a runtime workbench launch shortcut 
available. The attached patch adds a contextual launch attribute to the 
shortcut to enable launching when a selected resource or active editor is 
assocaited with a project that has a plug-in nature.

with a pde nature.

The work in progress is in this week's I-build. We intend to release this as 
the default behavior into next week's I-build (Sept 7 build). Can this patch 
be applied for Tuesday's build?
