Are there any non-deprecated Eclipse PDE plugin templates?

Question

I'm learning how to develop plugins for eclipse, and I'm trying to add a menu item to a context menu. That sounds simple enough, and in the "New Plugin Project" wizard, several templates are given, one of which creates a new item in the context menu.

The problem is Eclpse's own templates contain deprecated code. How can I learn how to develop proper code if even the provided templates use deprecated structures? Are there any templates out there which use modern structures like MenuContributions instead of deprecated structures like ActionSet and PopupMenus?

For the record, I am using the latest version of Eclipse SDK, Indigo 4.2.1.

Answer 1

There are no templates for the command/menu API.
