How to maximize the eclipse runtime using SWTBot? [message #947915]

Hello
During the test run using swtbot I would like to maximize the window of an automated eclipse. Does anyone know what code I use to perform this operation?

Thank you.

Miguel,

as far as I know maximizing a shell isn't supported by SWTBot. You may
want to open an enhancement request. In the meanwhile, you can extend
the SWTBotShell like sketched below.

public class SWTBotShellExtension extends SWTBotShell {

public SWTBotShellExtension( Shell shell )
throws WidgetNotFoundException
{
super( shell );
}

public void maximize() {
new SWTBot().waitUntil( new DefaultCondition() {
public String getFailureMessage() {
return "Timed out waiting for "
+ SWTUtils.toString( widget )
+ " to get maximized";
}

public boolean test() throws Exception {
return syncExec( new BoolResult() {
public Boolean run() {
widget.setMaximized( true );
return Boolean.valueOf( widget.getMaximized() );
}
} );
}
} );
notify( SWT.Resize );
}
}

The class constructor receives a Shell, which sheel is that this should be received?
How do I call this method at runtime?

if you want to maximize the workbench window, then you might obtain the
shell from
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getShell()
or whereever your active workbench window is accessible from.
Once you have a reference to the shell that represents the workbench
window,
new SWTBotExtension( shell ).maximize()
will (hopefully) maximize the window.

I'm not able to run this way:

Shell shell = new Shell();
		shell = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getShell();
		new SWTBotShellExtension(shell).maximize();

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for your patience and help.

Miguel,

obtaining the workbench window from PlaformUI... was just meant as an
example and might not fit your environment - though it commonly works.
What exactly isn't working when you run the code?

Does your EditPart work correctly on Juno?
I tend to think that SWTBot is doing the right thing, but the EditPart
has a bug with 4.2 that prevents it from being selected.
