Mutliple Tabs not showing for Tabbed Properties view [message #316923]

Hi,
I've created a tabbed properties view with two tabs (Callbacks, and
Advanced for now). My editor shows both of these tabs when I have the
same input source, but when I add an different input source for the
second tab, only one tab is shown. I'm only using the
AdvancedPropertySection for both tabs in my tab view. Here's a partial
of my plugin.xml

<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.views.properties.tabbed.propertyContributor ">
<propertyContributor
contributorId="editors.DataElemFormEditor"
>
<propertyCategory category="advanced"/>
<propertyCategory category="callbacks"/>
</propertyContributor>
</extension>
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.views.properties.tabbed.propertyTabs" >
<propertyTabs contributorId="editors.DataElemFormEditor">
<propertyTab
afterTab="SpecCallbacks"
category="advanced"
id="SpecAdvanced"
label="Advanced"/>
<propertyTab
category="callbacks"
id="SpecCallbacks"
label="Callbacks"/>
</propertyTabs>
</extension>
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.views.properties.tabbed.propertySections ">
<propertySections contributorId="editors.DataElemFormEditor">
<propertySection
afterSection="SpecCallbacks"

class=" org.eclipse.ui.views.properties.tabbed.AdvancedPropertySecti on "
id="AdvancedSection"
tab="SpecAdvanced">
<input type="EObjectPropertySheetContentProvider"/>
</propertySection>
<propertySection

class=" org.eclipse.ui.views.properties.tabbed.AdvancedPropertySecti on "
id="CallbacksSection"
tab="SpecCallbacks">
<input type="EObjectPropertySheetContentProvider2"/>
</propertySection>
</propertySections>
</extension>

</plugin>

I'll try explaining my problem further.

What I have is an EditorPart which implements the
ITabbedPropertySheetPageContributer. I also have several implementations
of IPropertySource, which I would like to correspond to different tabs,
one IPropertySource for each tab. I have an object that is in my
EditorPart which has all of the data that I can pass to the
corresponding IPropertySource.

I want those tabs to be shown in the properties view when I select that
particular EditorPart. The problem is that currently I create a new
StructuredSelection(IPropertySource) and in the EditorPart.setFocus() I
do a getSite().getSelectionProvider().setSelection(StructuredSele ction)
of the one I created, and this makes just the corresponding tab show up
for that IPropertySource. I must be doing something wrong because I
need to have multiple tabs using the corresponding IPropertySource as I
explained above.

Can anyone please help?

Thanks
Roshan
