Hi,

how can I implement the built-in 'New window' command (id=org.eclipse.ui.window.newWindow) in e4?

Regards,
Vladimir

This handler should work if you want to clone the window. If not create a brand new window through the factories.

 @Execute
	public void execute(MApplication app, MWindow win){
		app.getChildren().add(EcoreUtil.copy((EObject)win));
	}

Thank you, Sopot! It works! You code needs just one more cast:

@Execute
  public void execute(MApplication app, MWindow win){
    app.getChildren().add((MWindow) EcoreUtil.copy((EObject)win));
  }
