Listening for Perspective Changes [message #157101]

I want to make programatic changes after a user changes perspective (via
PerspectiveBar) in an RCP application.

Is there a good way to listen for these changes?

Is the PerspectiveBar already register as a source of events (my code does
not currently register it)?

Thanks

Charlie

Hi,

implement the IPerspectiveListener and put your code in the
perspectiveChanged event.

Here is an example:

Hi Nicole,

Thanks for the advice and the URLs.
I hadn't seen KickJava before.
