Hi, all
I'm in trouble with handling the network broken and re-establish in an
IM application, which is build on RCP.
Our requirements is to follow the way of MSN and Skype, that is to say,
when the network is broken, the main window should be closed, and only
the login dialog will be shown, and if the network connectionn is
established, the application can auto re-login.
We're using SMACK as communication protocol, and in it's version 3.0,
XMPPConnection can do re-login automatically, but the problem is, how to
close the workbench and just show the login dialog to the user?
At first, we tried PlatformUI.getWorkbench().restart(), but after this
method is executed, we'll get new XMPPConnection and ConnectionListener
objects, so they cannot listen to the re-login event and then UI cannot
get notifications.
My question is: Will there be any way that I can restart the application
without release the objects in the memory?
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot!
Chandler.

or, can we forbid users from controlling UI?
