Annotation Type Menu

@Target(value={})
public @interface Menu

One item of a Plugin's menu path. It can be a top-level menu such as File, a nested menu such as Open Recent, or a leaf item such as Exit. A sequential list of Menus defines a Plugin's position in the menu structure.

Using a list of Menus to define menu position is more verbose than using Plugin.menuPath(), but more powerful in that it allows specification of various menu attributes (e.g., weight(), mnemonic(), accelerator() and iconPath()).
