i am working on RCP application and added a link on welcome page as

href="http://org.eclipse.ui.intro/switchToLaunchBar"

on eclipse 3.3.1.1 it works fine
bt on eclipse 3.6 in windows7 64-bit its doesn't work

i actually debug the eclipse as well as my application as both having this functionality..
IntroUrl.switchToLaunchBar() function is being called

and difference is in my case launchBarElement is null...

i used all the default settings of eclipse except the intro page so unable to get the cause of being launchBarElement = null

any suggesstions are welcomed....

thanks in advance

Hi,

Well am having the issue with the Intro page. The issue is quite different from yours.

But if you can help me with that, it would be much appreciated.

The issue is, i have implemented the Intro page by extending the IntroPart (my intro page is not HTML or XML based and am using eclipse 3.6). When the application is started, the welcome page is shown perfectly. However when the welcome page is still open, if the user selects the "Open Perspective" from the "Window" menu and selects a perspective to open, the intro page is getting closed but the selected perspective is not opened in the workbench an empty screen is displayed but the perspective is getting updated in the Perspctive shortcut bar.

If you have any questions please leave a reply and any help on this is welcomed.

Thanks.
