====== Add data to dynamic menu entry ======

If a dynamic menu contribution is used you can attach additional data (transient data map) to each menu item so that the handler can later work with that data.

<sxh java>
MCommand command = getCommandInstance(USER_ACTION_COMMAND_ID);

for (UserAction userAction : userActions) {
	MHandledMenuItem dynamicItem = modelService.createModelElement(MHandledMenuItem.class);
	dynamicItem.setLabel(userAction.getName());
	dynamicItem.setCommand(command);
	dynamicItem.getTransientData().put("name", userAction.getName());
	dynamicItem.getTransientData().put("command", userAction.getCommand());

	items.add(dynamicItem);
}
</sxh>

The handler can then retrieve the data by getting the menu item injected.

<sxh java>
@Execute
public void execute(@Optional MMenuItem menuItem) {
	String userActionName = menuItem.getTransientData().getOrDefault("name", "").toString();
	String userActionCommand = menuItem.getTransientData().getOrDefault("command", "").toString();
}
</sxh>
