Re: [platform-dev] Dynamically change the title of editor's tabs

[Lars Vogel <lars.vogel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Arian,

you can also use the e4 API. See
https://www.vogella.com/tutorials/Eclipse4Services/article.html#model-service

part.setLabel("New Label") should do the trick, after you got the part
via the model or part service.

Best regards, Lars
