Is it possible to add the Console of Eclipse IDE to an Eclipse e4 RCP application?
If yes, please, how can I do that?

hi,

just a quick guess ... if i want to see what is going on i add

-consoleLog

as a cmdline Argument to the executable of my product. I also tried adding -console but as i (now) read in the following link this is used to set the access-port of osgi-console to a specific port (i suppose)

See

http://help.eclipse.org/juno/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/misc/runtime-options.html?cp=2_1_3_0

for a complete Reference of cmdline args.

HTH,
Dan

//edit: please unread all above if you "just" want a "Console View ViewPart" in your Product ... then i suppose the best/worst info is the following post: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/367427/

Maybe it is implemented in Kepler? Toms reply is already ~6 months old and maybe something has been done to have it implemented/ported?

Hi Dan,

Many Thanks for your reply!

What I want is a Console View Part in my Product. So it is a bad news for me!

The good news are that I finish the following tutorial dirksmetric dot wordpress dot com/2012/08/01/tutorial-eclipse-rcp-e4-with-3-x-views-like-project-explorer-properties-etc/#more-132

So I will try to replace the Project Explorer by the Console and call/include this library/plugin with my E4 RCP Application. If I was successful on it I will post the solution here.
