1, Show Action only for specific perspectives
IContextService contextService = ( IContextService ) PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getService( IContextService.class );
In 3.2 and 3.3, you can create an actionSet with visibility false. Then use your perspective factory or org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions to activate that actionSet.
In 3.3, an actionSet generates a context with the equivalent ID, so it is available for core expressions like activeWhen, visibleWhen, and enabledWhen.
2, Creating a declarative security model for RCP applications
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/library/os-ecl-rcpsec/?ca=dgr-lnxw16RCPbuilding
Thick client-based business applications require rigid security regulations where different classes of users receive a predetermined set of access rights. This article explains how to build a flexible security model for Rich-Client Platform (RCP) applications by leveraging features provided by the Eclipse platform.
3, Custom UI style
PlatformUI.getPreferenceStore().setDefault(
IWorkbenchPreferenceConstants.SHOW_TRADITIONAL_STYLE_TABS, false);
PlatformUI.getPreferenceStore().setDefault(
IWorkbenchPreferenceConstants.DOCK_PERSPECTIVE_BAR, IWorkbenchPreferenceConstants.TOP_LEFT);
4, Show view in the activie perspective
String viewId = "testView";
try {
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().showView(viewId);} catch (PartInitException e) {
MessageDialog.openInformation(PlatformUI.getWorkbench()
.getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getShell(),"Information","No this view!");
}
5, Show perspective
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().showPerspective(perspectiveId,
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow());
6、generate coolbar
ToolBarManager commonbar = new ToolBarManager(SWT.FLAT | SWT.RIGHT);
ToolBarContributionItem commonItem = new ToolBarContributionItem(commonbar, "common");
commonbar.add(exitAction);
//
coolBar.add(commonItem);
7、Window default size
Rectangle displayBounds = Display.getDefault().getPrimaryMonitor().getBounds();
configurer.setInitialSize(new Point(displayBounds.width,displayBounds.height));
8、RCP product parameters setting.
Specify the program and VM arguments to launch the product with. Platform-specific arguments should be entered on their respective tabs.
program arguments : -Dsystem.property=value
VM arguments : -Dfile.encoding=GBK
