Build 20011101 In the type hierarchy perspective, the title of the window is the name of the type you opened the hierarchy on (which is good). But when you use Focus on... or Focus on X, the title is not changed.
*** Bug 4196 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
question to the desktop: can the perspective's label be changed? By focusing on another type, the perspectives input is changed. Is that supported?
Workbench does not have API to either set the perspective input or set the label. There are few things to think about before adding any of these APIs: 1 - Once the input is changed what should happen with the other views such as Navigator and Packages view? Should they change their input and "focus" on something else as well? 2 - When opening a new hierarqui perspective all views and editors are in sync, should it be kept in sync? 3 - What about opening another perspective instead of trying to change the context of the first one? In VAJ you could not change the class in a hierarchy browser. 4- Should the perspective be always in sync or should we just change the title and over look the other problems.
I am not a fan of providing explicit API to allow plugins to set the window title. There is however, a plan item to support working sets and the current working set would need to be identified in some way to the user. Could you imagine using this approach instead?
working set approach seems to be ok to me. If I understood right, by changing the working set, it is asked for it's label again?
Minor. Deferring.
Reopen for investigation
There are currently no plans to work on this feature
