| Show MultiStatus collapsed by default [message #685737] |

In my Eclipse RCP app I am using MultiStatus instances to make a hierarchy of messages during certain activities, which are ultimately added to the standard Eclipse error log (and view). When these are displayed in the error log view I would like them to appear fully collapsed. For example, consider the following status hierarchy:
- 1
- - 1.1
- - 1.2
- - - 1.2.1
- - - 1.2.2
- - 1.3
Current behaviour of the error log is to display 1 opened showing its children (1.1, 1.2, and 1.3). I would like it to simply display 1. Is this possible, and if so how?
Thanks for the help.

Hmm, I've investigated more and this seems to be hard coded in the LogView. The asyncRefresh(final boolean activate) method always calls the expandToLevel method on its viewer when it's refreshed. I've not yet managed to find a workaround. I'm still hoping someone has one, but I'm no longer holding my breath...
On the up side, renaming the LogView to something other than "Error Log" is actually quite easy, although it does make a dependency on the internal class (!). Add a new view in your "org.eclipse.ui.views" extension point, give it your own name (e.g. "Application Log"), icon, ID etc, but set the class to "org.eclipse.ui.internal.views.log.LogView". Use your new view ID wherever you used "org.eclipse.pde.runtime.LogView". Dirty but effective.
