I getting lost. I tried with a previous thread but it doesn't seem to be
clear, I try in other way.
In the perspective I built, I have views that I launch via the Windows >
Show View. I also have actions selected in the menuBar by choosing a
menuItem.
I would like one of the views to be launched after choosing an action in
the MenuBar.
How can I launch the view via this action (org.eclipse.ui.actionSets in
the manifest) ?
How can I refresh it with new info after having clicked on a button ?

Many thx for your help
anthony

The action you provide using the extension point org.eclipse.ui.actionSets
needs to implement the IWorkbenchWindowActionDelegate (read the doc on this
extension point). Look at the API on this interface, and notice it has a
init method where an IWorkbenchWindow is given. From the workbench window,
you can get access to the active workbench page (can be null). There is a
showView method on the workbench page

thanks, that works.
The second part of my question was, how to refresh the view after an event
(clicking on an 'enter button'. I think I have to add this method
'addPropertyListener(IPropertyListener listener)', and my view must
implement the IPropertyListener . But how to delete the old info and put
the new ones ?

Can you provide more information on what you want to do. What do you mean by
refresh the view? Is there another view in Eclipse that you could point to
that does the same thing (more or less) so we can better understand.
