Is there a way to quickly load up an view or editor without loading the
entire eclipse rcp stack?

I need a way to quickly test my editor and view UIs.

Thanks

Awesome. Solved this by doing pretty much what the SWT snippets do, which is
to have a main method which just initializes a shell, and just call the
Eclipse createPartControl() method passing in the shell. Super fast!

public static void main(String[] args) {
MyView mediumView = new MyView (null, null, null, null);
MyPage mediumPage = mediumView.new MyPage ("page", null, null);
Display display = new Display();
final Shell shell = new Shell(display);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
mediumPage.createPartControl(shell);
shell.open();
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch())
display.sleep();
}
display.dispose();

}
