One solution is to create an extension using org.eclipse.ui.actionSets that contains a set of actions you want to be displayed in the tool bar when a specific perspective is selected. Then there is a extension point called org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions where you can associated a action set ID (the one you created) with a persepctive ID and that action set is only shown when the perspective is active. In terms of "creating your own tool bar" that is in clear. There is always only one toolbar but based on the perspective/view selection items can be hidden or active.

This thread is dead and the answer posted is no more valid. so it doesn't help me. please refer the link below.

This question is correct, on which no one is responding, after last response. The Last repose which is not correct for the current eclipse development, as actionSets is a deprecated API now. Below link clearly mentions that this is deprecated.

I have same related question and created another thread, which addresses more than this question too. Hope that is helpful.
