Hi,
Based on Rich Client Tutorial Part 2 I resolved use the intro as a login
page in my rcp.Application plugin.

I subclassed IntroPart in my SecurityIntroPart and override the show window
in my Advisor so it integrates with spring and Acegi.

My question if I can set the Intro closable to false like I can do with the
views layout?

Thanks

Mauro

I stumbled about the same problem. To my opinion, there does not exist a
clean way to use openIntro in the mentioned scenario, although it is
recommended in the RCP tutorial (It would be interesting to hear a
contardictin opinion!).
Currently I use my IPlatformRunnable run() implementation to receive the
effect (I was lead to that idea by another poster who brought the link

http://www.coconut-palm-software.com/the_visual_editor/eclip se_rcp/login.comments

to my attention):

public class MyPlatformRunnable implements IPlatformRunnable {

/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see org.eclipse.core.runtime.IPlatformRunnable#run(java.lang.Obj ect)
*/
public Object run(Object args) throws Exception {
final WorkbenchAdvisor workbenchAdvisor = new MyWorkbenchAdvisor();
final Display display = PlatformUI.createDisplay();

if (authenticate(display)) {
try {
final int returnCode = PlatformUI.createAndRunWorkbench(display,
workbenchAdvisor);

return (returnCode == PlatformUI.RETURN_RESTART) ?
IPlatformRunnable.EXIT_RESTART :
IPlatformRunnable.EXIT_OK;
}
finally {
display.dispose();
}
}
else {
return IPlatformRunnable.EXIT_OK;
}
}

I agree; doing the login in the IPlatformRunnable (the RCP main program) has
worked out better for people so I've taken out that suggestion about using
openIntro() or initialize() for logins in the tutorial. Thanks for the
input.
