| How to display a View defined in another plug-in? [message #460366] |

I have a RCP with one Perspective defined. Within this Perspective, I want
to display a View that is defined in another plug-in. I tried calling
layout.addView() using the ID of the View as defined by the plug-in, but
that didn't work. To test, I added the
ContributionItemFactory.VIEWS_SHORTLIST item to a menu on my RCP, and this
when invoked, displayed only the Views(s) defined in my RCP project; none of
the Views from any of the plug-ins came up.
I have ensured that the ID of the View is the same, and that the plug-in
package containing the View is exposed in the plug-in's Exported Packages in
the Runtime Editor. What am I missing?

Here are the steps I followed:
1) In the plug-in containing the view (sessionmanager), I exported the =
package (and all related packages) containing the "LaunchView" view. (In =
a later step, I exported ALL packages in the plugin, just as a =
sanity-test)
2) I double-clicked my RCP plugin.xml, and=20
a) In the Dependencies tab, I added "sessionmanager" as a Required =
Plug-in
b) In the Extensions tab, I added "LaunchView" from the =
sessionmanager plugin as an org.eclipse.ui.views extension.(ID of this =
extension element came from the LaunchView class which is public static =
final)
3) In my RCP Perspective class, I loaded the LaunchView using the public =
LaunchView.ID (same id as specified in the plugin.xml in step (2)).
4) When I run my RCP, I get the following error:
