Showing a view twice in same window [message #206740]

Hi,

is it possible to show the same view twice in the same window?

What I want is to see the problems view in the Java perspective twice:
one view with the problems of the current class, the other one with
the problems of the whole current project.

Does that work?

This is possible in Eclipse 3.0 stream only. See
IWorkbenchPage.showView(String, String, int).

Thanks for your help.

I am using Eclipse 3.0 (latest available nightly build) but I have not
yet looked into the Eclipse API, so I cannot deal with the method. Can
I open the view from the UI somehow?

Ah, sorry, I thought you were asking from an API perspective. This is
not (and probably never will), be possible for a user to do directly.
The problem is that if a programmatic user of a view is not expecting
that there may be multiple copies, then it would not act correctly if
the user opened multiple copies. Each view implementor needs to decide
if they want to support multiple view instances, and I believe this is
not planned for the problems view.

Thanks for explaining me.

Do you think, it is possible to create a kind of copy of the problems
view from inside a plugin?
