there should be a way to inform components that a view is on it's way to be closed. i'm talking about something like "preShutDown()" in ApplicationWorkbenchAdvisor. That would enable the View to react to this event (and possibly vote against it for some reasons) yours, Marcus
Under what circumstances would it be appropriate for a view to veto shutdown/closure?
(In reply to comment #1) > Under what circumstances would it be appropriate for a view to veto shutdown/closure? well, the ability to veto was just one example... given the case that there is a view with widgets, for example an OleFrame, on it, and that it is nessesary to save the data in those widgets before the view is closed, trying to save the data within the dispose() method would't work bc the widgets containig the data to save are disposed already. (please excuse my bad english) yours, marcus
To save information from a view as it closes, you should use IPartListener2#partClosed(...) ... the view is being closed (i.e. there are no other references in any other perspective) but it hasn't actually been disposed and all of the controls should be valid. PW
There are currently no plans to work on this feature. PW
