Hi Eclipse community,

I have a Project creation wizard with a custom perspective, in this
prespective I use "Project Explorer" view and I would like on project
creation have the newly created project selected and expanded.
But I don't find API to control Project Explorer UI elements, Project
Explorer seems to be usable with CNF. But I don't find any more help in
CNF side.

Someone have an idea of how to do that?

Thanks.

You can get the Project Explorer ViewPart which is an instance of the CommonNavgiator. From the CommonNavigator you can get its viewer, using getCommonViewer(). This viewer is a TreeViewer subclass so you can do the usual things to select and expand. The view ID for the project explorer is in ProjectExplorer.VIEW_ID.

Thanks Francis,

I have done that in the Wizard.dispose() method in a Display.asynExec()
Runnable to have a IWorkbenchPage != null, and it works.

Thanks.
