Hi.

I'm currently listing all projects, via ResourcePlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot().getPlugins(), this is the easy part.

You know that you can "Go Into" a project by right-clicking it and selecting "Go Into" in the package explorer(of the JDT). I now want to do exactly that in my java code, I just don't know how. looking at the plugin.xml of org.eclipse.jdt.ui, I can only see the org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer class which
1) I can't use in my code(eclipse does not give me content assist for it)
2) I can't find in the source jar(org.eclipse.jdt.ui.source[...].jar)

Another alternative would be some kind of Filter I can apply to only show resources of a specific project(if that's possible).


So, I hope someone knows how to achieve what I want.

You will have to add org.eclipse.jdt.ui in your plugin.xml dependencies so that you can use org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer class while implementation.

For a specific project you can use ResourcePlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot().getProject(projectName) to get a specific project.

Thanks & regards,
Vinay

I already did that.(org.eclipse.jdt.ui is 3.7 btw), but seems like there's no PackageExplorer class. I only get PackageExplorerContentProvider, PackageExplorerLabelProvider, PackageExplorerOpenActionProvider, PackageExplorerPart and PackageExplorerProblemsDecorator.

I know that. But what I want to achieve is the following:
- Let the user select a project from my project list. When he selects one, I want the PackageExplorer to "go into"(i.e. only show resources of) that project.

I looked into it again, and it looks like the ProjectExplorer also has the "Go Into" functionality and since I use my own perspective and don't really want a JDT dependency, using the ProjectExplorer is more appropriate.
Unfortunately, I also can't find information about how to achieve it with the ProjectExplorer. Googling is kinda hard, most of the entries are simply about how to add a filter with the UI :/
