Hi all,

The scenario is, I have a plugin P1 with a single view in it. Another plugin P2 has a perspective & I want to show P1's view in P2's perspective.
How can this be done?

Thanks!

If p2 is dependent on p1 why not just add that view when laying out p2
perspective? I think you can even do it without dependence present - all
you need to add a view to a perspective is just its id.
Or you can make that view sticky, so that once shown it will be shown in
every perspective.

Hi,

In the Exported packages section of runtime tab of the plugin.xml of the plugin P1 add the package containing the view and then you can use your view in the perspective of the plugin P2.

Have a nice day!
Regards,
Rohit
