[ews.eclipse.technology.rap] Re: Selection not working after Dialog post

[Ivan Furnadjiev <ivan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Stu,

your description points me to this bug, which has been fixed in 1.2M7:
245100: Selection changes are not always propagated (ISourceProvider 
Framework)
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=245100
Which version of RAP do you use?

Best,
Ivan
