Hi there,
I've developped an eclipse RCP client software. In that main RCP software, I
used an IPerspectiveFactory.createInitialLayout(IPageLayout) to layout all
my views. But now, I'm developping an other (secundary) plugin for my main
RCP software I mentioned above and I want to add some other views via that
plugin.
I don't know how to layout my views. For the moment the only thing I can do
is:
IWorkbenchPage page =
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActi vePage();
IViewPart viewPart = page.showView("viewid",
"viewId2",IWorkbenchPage.VIEW_ACTIVATE);
But that code always put my view at the same place. How can I master the way
my secundary plugin lays out its views ?
Thanks for your help.
Emmanuel

Hi Emmanuel,
I am going from the fact that you created a rcp. Under the Perspective-Class, from the snippet below,
************************
public void createInitialLayout(IPageLayout layout) {
layout.setEditorAreaVisible(false);
layout.addView(View1.ID, IPageLayout.LEFT, 0.50f, layout.getEditorArea());
layout.addView(BelowView1.ID,IPageLayout.BOTTOM, 0.40f, View1.ID);
layout.addView(RightToView1.ID, IPageLayout.RIGHT, 0.25f, layout.getEditorArea());
layout.addView(BelowRithtToView1.ID,IPageLayout.BOTTOM, 0.60f, RightToView1.ID);
}
**************************
I believe your problem will be solved.
Best Regards,
Enique

Thank you Eric.
I have already similar code source in the perspective my main RCP appli but
the view I want to add comes from a plugin. And in that plugin, I have no
Perspective class. Further more my main RCP appli cannot access the classes
defined in plugins.
So my problem is not resolved : From a plugin, I cannot access the
Perspective.createInitialLayout method of the main rcp plugin.
Thanks to anyone who knows how to solve my problem.
Emmanuel

Hi Emmanuel,
Plug-ins can contribute additional views through the
org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions extension point. You specify the
perspective you want to contribute to, and also the existing view (or the
editor area) that you want your view created in relation to.
