Re: Question about opening multiple editors

This did it.
Since I originally wanted a ViewPart instead of an Editor, this one seems to do the trick. Now when I double click on a TreeItem, a new view part is shown with the proper contents.

String altId = getIdFomSelection();
try
{
IViewPart view = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().showView(GenericTableViewPartId, altId, IWorkbenchPage. VIEW_ACTIVATE);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}

Subject: [Wdsc-Plugin-Dev] Question about opening multiple editors



when I double click on a TreeItem, I want to open a new editor/view part. And I want to be able to have multiple editors open at the same time. does anyone know how to do this?
My current code to open the editor is this:

String schema = ((TreeObject)firstElement).getLocation();
String table = ((TreeObject)firstElement).getName();
TableViewerInput tvi = new TableViewerInput(schema, table);
try
{
page.openEditor(tvi, "Reports.TableViewer", true);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}

But when the event happens, the existing editor just shows new data instead of opening a whole new editor part.
