Hi,
Can you tell me how to close a view passing viewID as parameter?
I want that a view was closed by pressing a button of another view.
Thanks a lot.

Hide view

IViewPart viewRef = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().findView("your view ID");
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().hideView(viewRef);

Just a note: If you are already in a view, simply use
getSite().getPage() to get your IWorkbenchPage. Don't go to PlatformUI
if you can help it.
