QtCreator API: adding Menus to QtCreator works, but cannot enable Actions

markus.liebe

Hi there,

I have a plugin that adds a new Menu to QtCreators MenuBar. The Actions in the MenuBar are displayed but not enabled. I do not know why. Do you have any hints?

(Using QtCreator 2.1.0)

Here is the code:

@bool TestMenuPlugin::initialize(const QStringList& args, QString *errMsg){
Q_UNUSED(args);
Q_UNUSED(errMsg);

    // Fetch the action manager
    Core::ActionManager* am = Core::ICore::instance()->actionManager();

    // Create the TestMenu
    Core::ActionContainer* ac = am->createMenu("TestMenuPlugin.TestMenuMenu");
    ac->menu()->setTitle("&Test");       

    Core::Context context(TestMenu::Constants::C_TESTMENU);

    Core::Command* cmdTest = am->registerAction(new QAction(this),"TestPlugin.Test",context);

    cmdTest->action()->setText("Test");
    cmdTest->action()->setEnabled(true);

    // Add TestPlugin menu to the menubar
    am->actionContainer(Core::Constants::MENU_BAR)->addMenu(ac);
    QMenu* windowMenu = am->actionContainer(Core::Constants::M_HELP)->menu();
    QMenuBar* menuBar = am->actionContainer(Core::Constants::MENU_BAR)->menuBar();
    menuBar->insertMenu(windowMenu->menuAction(),ac->menu());

//Trying to enable the action
ac->menu()->setEnabled(true);

    // Add the "Test" action to the TestPlugin Menu
    ac->addAction(cmdTest);

    // Connect the action
    connect(cmdTest->action(),SIGNAL(triggered()),this,SLOT(startSth()));

    addAutoReleasedObject(new TestMenuOptionPaneLister(m_fileSettings));

return true;
}@
