[Qt-creator] [SOLVED] Plugin question

[Enrico Ros]

Thanks a lot for the reply.
Using the Core::Constants::C_GLOBAL_ID context shows up my menu entries! This 
"context" stuff is nice.

The "external plugins" is not needed, I was only thinking on provinding 3rd 
party plugins to QtCreator. The open repository is a better solution to that 
anyways!
