| Empty console content when opened programmatically in the JEE perspective [message #330128] | Tue, 15 July 2008 17:44 |  |

 Hi,
 
 I developed a plug-in on Eclipse 3.3 EE that worked fine until I upgraded
 to Eclipse 3.4 and I need help to figure out what is wrong.
 
 When I start Eclipse in a new workspace, it opens in the JavaEE
 perspective by default. From a menu, I start a process. The plug-in
 programmatically open the console view using the following code:
 
 IWorkbench workbench = PlatformUI.getWorkbench();
 IWorkbenchWindow window = workbench.getActiveWorkbenchWindow();
 if (window == null && workbench.getWorkbenchWindowCount() > 0) {
 window = workbench.getWorkbenchWindows()[0];
 }
 window.getActivePage().showView("org.eclipse.ui.console.ConsoleView ");
 
 At this point, the Console view is opened in the perspective, but does not
 display anything (it remains grey with the message "No consoles to display
 at this time"). It should display the application stdout as it did with
 3.3. If I switch to the debug perspective, the console suddenly displays
 the values and no info is missing. So it seems like the console actually
 got the content, but it was not displayed. From there I can go back to the
 JavaEE perspective and my console content is fine.
 
 Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug in 3.4? Is there a better way to
 programmatically open the console?
 
 Thanks alot!
 Alain
