Are nested views possible within Eclipse RCP [message #462480]

Hi everyone!

I hope my question isn't too simple and haven't read over the solution in the api. Currently, I'm searching for a way to integrate several views in a kind of a sashform. In fact I try to achieve a behaviour comparable to the default Java perspective within Eclipse for example. That means I need three 'boxes' like the one with the Package Explorer, the one containing the source code and the 'outline' box.
Could anyone please give me an initial idea how to realize this? Or even explain me the Eclipse internal implementation...

Thanks, Michael

Án additional, but very important point I have forgotten. This several views I need should be integrated within one superior view integrated in an IFolderLayout... Is there a way to manage this?

It sounds like you want to have these as separate views, rather than tying them together in a single view. Perhaps you should consider a perspective to organise the views in a particular way for your application?

The short answer is no. Views can't contain other views. Certain
editors (like MultiPageEditorPart) can contain other editors with a
number of restrictions.

But if you want something like the Java Perspective, why not create the
entire thing using a perspective factory?
