Find all currently open instances of a view [message #318084]

Hi!
I cannot find the proper method that returns all currently open
windows/instances of a view.
I'm looking for a method that finds the currently open views by its
primary id
like:
IViewPart[] findOpenViews("com.xy.MyView");

Any hints?
Thanx, Robert

in the general case you want IWorkbenchPage#findView(*) or
findViewReference(*).

Do you have multi-instance views?

Hi!
Yes it is a multi-instance view.
I currently use a loop over IViewReferences returned by
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActi vePage().getViewReferences()
and search for the proper ID.
Greetings,
Robert
