I need to add a pulldown button to a view's toolbar in an Eclipse plugin.

Actually buttons in the toolbar are added like that :

<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.viewActions">
  <viewContribution id="..." targetId="$MyViewId$">
    <action id="..."
            toolbarPath="action1"
            class="Class extending Action and implementing IViewActionDelegate">
    </action>
  </viewContribution>
</extension>
