                  an optional identifier of the extension instance
               
            
         
         
            
               
                  an optional name of the extension instance
               
            
         
      
   

   
      
         
            
               
                  action label to appear in menu
               
               
                  
               
            
         
         
            
               
                  optional plug-in relative path to an icon to appear with the action
               
               
                  
               
            
         
         
            
               
                  class implementing <code>org.eclipse.ui.console.IConsoleFactory</code> that will be called when the associated action is invoked
               
               
                  
               
            
         
      
   

   
      
         
      
      
         3.1
      
   

   
      
         
      
      
         The following is an example of a console factory extension point: 
<pre>
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.console.consoleFactories">
  <consoleFactory 
     label="Command Console"
     class="com.example.CommandConsoleFactory"
     icon="icons/cmd_console.gif">
  </consoleFactory>
</extension>
</pre>
This extension will cause an entry to appear in the console view's <b>Open Console</b> drop-down menu labelled <b>Command Console</b> with the specified icon. When the action is invoked by a user, the method <b>openConsole()</b> on the class <b>com.example.CommandConsoleFactory</b> will be called. The factory can the decide to create a new console or activate an existing console.
      
   

   
      
         
      
      
         Value of the attribute <b>class</b> must be a fully qualified name of a Java class that implements the interface <b>org.eclipse.ui.console.IConsoleFactory</b>.
      
   

   
      
         
      
      
         The console plug-in provides a console factory to open a new console view.
