[pde-dev] Re: A question of views (Vinny)

[Dan Kehn <kehn@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This is a newsgroup question... but
see http://help.eclipse.org/help30/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/extension-points/org_eclipse_ui_perspectiveExtensions.html,
specifically the <view> child tag and the relative/relationship attributes.
 Here's the example it proposes to layout the JDT views in the Resource
perspective:

    <extension point="org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions">

        <perspectiveExtension

            targetID="org.eclipse.ui.resourcePerspective">

            <actionSet
id="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.JavaActionSet"/> 
            <viewShortcut
id="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer"/> 
            <newWizardShortcut
id="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.wizards.NewProjectCreationWizard"/>

            <perspectiveShortcut
id="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.JavaPerspective"/> 
            <view
id="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer" 
               
relative="org.eclipse.ui.views.ResourceNavigator" 
               
relationship="stack"/> 
            <view
id="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.TypeHierarchy" 
               
relative="org.eclipse.ui.views.ResourceNavigator" 
               
relationship="left" 
               
ratio="0.50"/> 
        </perspectiveExtension>

    </extension>

Good morning Mark, wish I had an answer for you but
instead I'm just 
here to beg that you tell me if you get an answer for this.  Have
the 
same problem and asked on the discussion board a while back with no luck.

Hope somebody answers!
