Build ID: I20070209-1006 Steps To Reproduce: 1. Open two different tabs in Monitor or Table 2. Only elements in the last opened tab will be shown in Properties View. More information: MonitorViewPage chanages selection provider in onFocus but that does not work. For the correct behavior the ViewPart should be the site selection provider, listen to selection change events in tabs and pass the events to the site.
To make this change will require API changes to the SystemMonitorViewPart. It will now have to implement ISelectionProvider and be a wrapper for the proper selection provider. It will also have to add a setActiveViewerSelectionProvider() method, so the proper selection provider for the active viewer is known. From: http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-WorkbenchSelections/article.html "Be aware that the part's site accepts a single selection provider only, which should be registered within the createPartControl() method only: getSite().setSelectionProvider(provider); Replacing the selection provider during the lifetime of the part is not properly supported by the workbench. If a part contains multiple viewers providing selections, like the "Java Hierarchy" view does, a intermediate ISelectionProvider implementation has to be provided that allows dynamically delegating to the currently active viewer within the part. "
not important enough for 2.0, IMHO
Created attachment 71516 [details] Made the SystemMonitorViewPart a SelectionProvider that wraps the table viewers selection provider Made the SystemMonitorViewPart a SelectionProvider that wraps the table viewers selection provider and updated the widgetSelected method so that it updated the wrapped provider when clicking on tabs in the Monitor.

I've applied the patch and committed it to cvs. Thanks Kevin!
