Hi, I have an eclipse e4 app and a bundle that has no dependencies to the app bundle. From this other bundle I want to quit the app if some condition is not fullfilled. How can I obtain programmatically a workbench to close the application? This bundle has no parts (Just headless code and some wizards (JFace). Thank you!

You can use `Display#close()`, though this calls out to all `SWT.Close` listeners which can refuse the attempt.
You could also use `Display#dispose()`, though that's fairly brutish.

Alternatively, the E4Application is an Equinox IApplication, and these are available from the service registry, and you can issue a #stop() to the IApplication instance.

HI Brian

many thanks for your hints. Because I did not find any service with interface IApplication I tried to close the IWorkbench that is available from service registry. But I had then to use Display.close() because the workbench (thought available) did not as I expected. Display.close() seems to me the best of the variants.
