Setting different initial perspective possible? [message #887101]

Hi,

I have a need to present different initial perspective when the application starts. Say I have:

Bundle A: with perspective A
Bundle B: with perspective B

Now bundle C contains the entry point (Application.java). In the WB advisor, I need to set the initial perspective. I need to determine if Bundle A is installed so I can use perspective A, or if Bundle B is installed so I can use perspective B. Finally, if both bundles are installed, I will use perspective A. Is this do-able?

Thank you so much for your help.

Ronald

Ronald,

you can ask the BundleContext whether a certain bundle is available and
if it is running.
Bundle bundleC = FrameWorkUtil.getBundle( MyWorkbenchAdvisor.class );
BundleContext bundleContext = bundleC.getBundleContext();

BundleContext#getBundles() returns all known bundles, Bundle#getState()
will answer in what state the bundle currently is.

maybe you can use diffrent entrypoint or use parameter

@Override
public int createUI() {
Display display = PlatformUI.createDisplay();
// String para = RWT.getRequest().getParameter("test");
WorkbenchAdvisor advisor = new ApplicationWorkbenchAdvisor();
registerService();
LoginPage.OpenPage();
int result = PlatformUI.createAndRunWorkbench(display, advisor);
return result;
}

if use parameter from rwt, you can write 2 ApplicationWorkbenchAdvisor:
public class ApplicationWorkbenchAdvisor extends WorkbenchAdvisor {

public WorkbenchWindowAdvisor createWorkbenchWindowAdvisor(IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer configurer) {
return new ApplicationWorkbenchWindowAdvisor(configurer);
}

public String getInitialWindowPerspectiveId() {
return UIConstants.PERSPECTIVE_ID_MYWORKSPACE;
}
}
