hi,
how do i get a ViewPart-instance from another ViewPart-instance?
exists something like getViewByID(String id)?
i have a view with buttons and would (just for fun) hide/show a second
view by pressing the buttons, atm i could use

for(IViewReference x : getSite().getPage().getViewReferences()){
if(x.getId().equals("MyPlugin.secondview")){
getSite().getPage().hideView(x);
}
}

but that's rather ugly ...

? What's wrong with IWorkbenchPage#findView(String id) or
IWorkbenchPage#findViewReference(String id)?

it begins with "find" :-) i'm still used to have such methods starting
with "get" ...
