In the view's extension point, i specify the view class and the veiw ID.
Can i have two views(Extensions in the plugin.xml ) which have different view IDs but same view class?
In other words, can two extension points for View have the same view class and different VIew ID?

Is it a good practice to do this? We are facing a situation where we think this is a solution but we do not know what is the impact of this approach.

Please share your thoughts on this approach.

Thanks,
Saurabh

Saurabh,

I don't think that's a problem, but will the two different instances of
the same class behave differently in some way? I.e., what's the goal?
