Page not available when view is initialized [message #437219]

Hi all,

I have an RCP application with a view wich should listen to part events.

public void createPartControl(Composite parent)
{
...

getSite().getWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().addPartListen er(myPartListener);
...
}

This worked fine until I activated the automatic restore functionality of
the workbench (IWorkbenchConfigurer.setSaveAndRestore(true))

Now I get a NullpointerException because the page is null when my view is
created.
Can anyone tell me where there is the best location to register the part
listener ?

Thanks in advance

You should probably use getSite().getPage().addPartListener(mpl); Also,
you can do the work in one of the IViewPart#init(...) methods.
