Description Marco Maccaferri CLA 2005-02-26 03:05:00 EST
In the WorkbenchAdvisor class a placeholder folder is created. The folder is
initially empty.
In another plugin I have a view that is targeting the placeholder folder created
in the WorkbenchAdvisor. This view is initially not visible (visible=false).
When the application is started for the first time (i.e. without a valid
workspace) the placeholder folder is visible and is empty. The placeholder
folder is not visible at the subsequent program starts. Removing the plugin
makes the placeholder folder invisible even when the workspace is first created.
The correct behaviour should be that the placeholder folder is not visible when
the workspace is first created.
This problem seems to be present even in 3.1M5a.

Any hope to see this fixed in 3.4 ?

    No. We are in the RC cycles and only critical bugs will get fixed

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.
