[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: When do ViewParts get disposed?

["Michael Moser" <mmo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Very odd: after reading your mail I added System.out.println()'s to my 
code to see, when the ctor and the dispose() are actually called and now 
everything works fine and as you described (and as I originally 
expected). Even after removing the println's again things remain fine. 
Oh well,...

Thank anyway,
Michael
