Description Thomas Wolf CLA 2017-05-05 05:30:46 EDT
Steps to reproduce:

* Have "Link with Editor and Selection" enabled in the history view.
* Open PDE manifest editor on a plugin.xml from a bundle.
* History view shows the history of plugin.xml. So far, so good.
* Switch to the MANIFEST.MF page in the PDE editor.

Expected:

* History updates to show the history of MANIFEST.MF.

Actual:

* History view does not update and keeps showing the history of plugin.xml.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

The problem still exists and is caused by the GenericHistoryView implementation not considering the active nested editor in MultiPageEditorParts. Still needs to be solved.
