Description Dani Megert CLA 2007-03-20 07:20:01 EDT 
I20070320-0010.

Select several files in the Open Type dialog and then press 'Enter'.
==> each editor is fully created. This bad for performance. Only the first or the last editor should be fully created. All others should be opened as part reference like when restarting Eclipse.

This needs new API from Platform UI. I suggest to listen for the corresponding bug in Platform UI (bug 178229).
Comment 1 Martin Aeschlimann CLA 2007-03-20 13:01:29 EDT 
Open File... seems to do better here
Comment 2 Markus Keller CLA 2007-03-21 05:12:51 EDT 
Same problem occurs when opening multiple files elsewhere (e.g. in Package Explorer).
Comment 3 Markus Keller CLA 2009-03-08 06:57:25 EDT 
See API from bug 183602.
Comment 4 Dani Megert CLA 2009-03-24 11:48:50 EDT 
Fixed in HEAD.
Available in builds >= N20090324-2000.
Comment 5 Dani Megert CLA 2009-05-11 10:56:08 EDT 
We had to back out this change. See bug 275668 for details.
Comment 6 Dani Megert CLA 2009-11-26 03:49:21 EST 
Open Type also reveals the element. We would need to have another API that allows to pass in a selection or we create a special editor input that also stores the selection to apply when opening the editor.

Filed bug 389478 to track that.

Proof of concept

This almost works but has revealing issues due to bug 375576 and/or bug 296477.

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.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. 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.
