Hi,
My application has 2 windows at the moment. at startup the login window is visible, the registration window not. on the login window is a link which calls a command. this is the handler to close the login window and open the registration window:
public class ShowPart {
@Execute
public void execute(final MApplication application, final EModelService ms, final EPartService partService,
@Named("windowId") final String windowId) {
// find the window to show
MUIElement e = ms.find(windowId, application);
e.setVisible(true);
e.setOnTop(true);
e.setToBeRendered(true);
ms.bringToTop(e);
// hide the others
for (MWindow window : application.getChildren()) {
if (!windowId.equals(window.getElementId())) {
window.setVisible(false);
window.setOnTop(false);
window.setToBeRendered(false);
}
}
}
}
This successfully closes the login window but it doesn't open my registration window.
What am i doing wrong?
thank you for your help,
mike

Why are you creating Workbench-Windows and not simply open a
TitleAreaDialog, Dialog, Shell?

BTW naturally opening/closing MWindows should work but I think you can
get around using native SWT/JFace-Code.
Did you have a look in my tutorial? I've successfully opened there
windows programmatically but things might have changed since 4.0.

Hi,
I finally found the problem:
When one defines a not visible window in the Application.e4xmi, the "To Be Rendered" checkbox must not be checked!
As soon as i unchecked it my command handler did his job.
I still don't know why it behaves like that. maybe one of you guys knows the answer?
thanks for your help and for eclipse 4/e4! I love using it!
mike
