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

["Stuart Pond" <Stuart.Pond@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

I can not isolate it down to reproducible example to file a bug.  However, I 
was able to following in the debugger that the 
CurrentSelectionProvider.updateWindows method is getting a bogus shell 
object in the event.  The shell object is suppose to have a handle to the 
workbenchWindow in its getData() method. But it does not.  This is why the 
source provider is never hooked up again to the selection service.

I suspect the listener is listening to the wrong shell, one that has already 
been disposed.  Any ideas where to look next?
