Is this similar to this thread?
I just figured out what was the problem.
I was using an external target platform to run my plugins, where I had installed only the basic plugins. After I installed the sourcesorg.eclipse.platform.source_2.1.0
andorg.eclipse.platform.win32.source_2.1.0
also on the target platform, the manifest editor in the PDE was working normal again.
(to be adapted to your Eclipse version)
Also confirmed in this more recent thread:
Your target platform (and the default will be your own eclipse install) needs to have the source bundles (which provide the schema files used by these menus).
i.e. if I installed the runtime version, I will only get Generic in the menus but if I install the SDK version I will get real elements.
Thank you very much for the answer.
I "Add" source file to the platform (Preferences / Plugin development / Target platform
) and got all menus!!
