Hi,
I am writing a plugin with a launcher. Inside that launcher I would like to
open up a view in the workbench, which displays the results from the
execution. But I cannot find any way to get a reference to the existing
workbench from inside the launcher. And all the examples I can find on the
eclipse site about launching programs is about stand-alone programs, which
do not connect back to the existing instance of Eclipse.
Does anyone know how to access the workbench from inside a launcher.
Regards,
Fredrik Karlsson

If I understand you correctly, what you want is to make a certain view open
from the "lauch" method. If this is right than try the following:
public void launch(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode, ILaunch
launch, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException {
...
...
Display.getDefault().asyncExec(new Runnable {
public void run () {
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActi vePage().showVie
w(<your_view_id_here>);
}
}
}
hope thi
