在插件项目中以编程方式打开Eclipse视图

Question

I want to open the view "Package Explorer" after a special event, inside my Eclipse plugin application.

This is what I am trying to do:

PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().showView("viewId");

But what is the id od the package explorer view?

Answer 1

The id is org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer for the JDT Package Explorer.

You can determine any ID if you press Alt + Shift + F1 while in the view. eg you get this pop-up (if you have PDE installed). See Vogella's tutorials for more info on using the Spy.
