Re: [tools-dev] Enhancing Perspective with a sample view

I thought that the relative attribute
specifies a view that you want to position this view relative to.
So, for example, you say "I want my view to pop up to the left of
this view...or on top of that view...or at least the spot where that view
goes." ???

Subject	[tools-dev] Enhancing Perspective with a sample view

Hi, 

I would like to clarify my doubts on enhancing the perspectives. I know
this is an age old Question. Please bear with me. 


I have created a view and would like to integrate it with the CDT perspective.
But all my work failed. I created the my view plugin and extended org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions
with the below XML segment.

 <extension point="org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions">
     <perspectiveExtension targetID="com.eclipse.ui.view.Targetresource">
         <view
               closeable="true"
               id="com.test.view.view1"
               moveable="true"
               relationship="stack"
               relative="org.eclipse.ui.views.ContentOutline"
               showTitle="true"
               visible="true"/>
      </perspectiveExtension>
   </extension>


But my Query would be, what is the role of relative attribute in
the segment. I learned that it is to define already existing View for a
perspective. 

But how would i integrate this view into any perspective which would appear
each time the perspective is opened. 

Please send in your suggestions.
