Eclipse PDE：如何以编程方式在Package Explorer中加载新项目？

Question

I have developed an Eclipse plugin that creates a new custom project via project creation wizard using INewWizard.

Once user inputs information and clicks 'Finish', project gets created within workspace successfully. Issue is that Package Explorer doesn't load this newly created project upon 'Finish' event. What should be implemented under performFinish() of the final wizard page to load the project in Package Explorer automatically?

How to load such newly created project in Package Explorer programmatically?

Ideally a project should be created using the version of IProject.create which takes a IProjectDescriptor . But if you are creating the project files some other way you still need to create the project using IProject to tell Eclipse about it. You can use something like:

IWorkspaceRoot root = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot();
IProject project = root.getProject(projectName);
if (!project.exists()) {
    project.create(monitor);
} else {
    project.refreshLocal(IResource.DEPTH_INFINITE, monitor);
}

// TODO add files

project.refreshLocal(IResource.DEPTH_INFINITE, monitor);
