Opening exising preference page via context menu [message #464256]

I have RCP application with table and some context menus. I need to open
existing preference page from one of the context menu. Is there an API to
open an preference page rather than going thru Window->Preferences ?

Thanks in advance

You can also execute the command: org.eclipse.ui.window.preferences It
takes an optional preferencePageId.

Although as Dani pointed out, it just takes the information and
PreferencesUtil.createPreferenceDialogOn(*) :-)
