show a view from a LaunchDelegate [message #427812]

Hi,

after my launch delegate succeeded I would like to open a special view
that shows the output of the launch to the user. But I am not able to
get an active IWorkbenchwindow from "down there" (aka the launch()
method) is there any trick to do that?

Probably the launch() method is from a class of debug core plugin. Did
you try PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWindow()?

Yeah, that returned null. The trick is to run that via
Display.asyncExec(). Ugly - but works.
