ActiveEditorId not set on startup [message #328182]

Hello,

First, I really apologize if this question has already been asked.
Indeed, I'm new to Eclipse, and I did not find my answer on the internet.

I have some toolbar buttons that are only visibleWhen the good editor is
opened. (the condition on visibleWhen look for ActiveEditorId and checks
whether it is equal to the editor that goes with these buttons).
The problem is that when I start Eclipse with an opened document in this
editor, buttons are not displayed! Indeed, it seems like the visibleWhen
condition is evaluated before Eclipse starts the editor; so that buttons
are not shown until an event occurs on my workspace.

Is there a way to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

Mickael,

If it's reproducible with a test case you should report it in a bugzilla
since it sounds like something the platform would need to fix...

Hi Ed,

I took a look at the bugzilla, and I admit I should have done it before
posting here...
It seems that my behaviour is the same as the one reported (and fixed)
here -> https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=228973

Thank you,
Mickael
