[news.eclipse.platform.rcp] Re: RCP Kiosk mode

[Roland Tepp <roland@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well - actually it's quite trivial:

All you need is in your WorkbenchWindowAdvisor implementation 
preWindowOpen set window shell style to SWT.NO_TRIM like this:
[===CODE STARTS]
void preWindowOpen() {
   IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer configurer = getWindowConfigurer();
   configurer.setShellStyle(SWT.NO_TRIM);
}
[===CODE ENDS]

and in postWindowCreate simply maximize the window like this:
[===CODE STARTS]
public void postWindowCreate() {
   Shell shell = getWindowConfigurer().getWindow().getShell();
   shell.setMaximized(true)
}
[===CODE ENDS]
