    <p>I am creating an RCP application. I need to open multiple instances of the same view but with different data. I did it by setting secondary id for different instances of the same view. Specifically, my problem is as follows: Please take a look</p> <p>I have a graph view called <code>Views.GraphView</code>. I opened different instances of it from a command called <code>openGraphView</code> to show different graphs. The command is as follows:</p> <pre><code>page.showView("Views.GraphView", Integer.toString(instanceNum++), IWorkbenchPage.VIEW_ACTIVATE); </code></pre> <p>Now, I have a command called <code>TreeLayout</code> on this <code>Views.GraphView</code> toolbar, which suppose to change the layout of the graph and it will operate on each instance of the view. But for this, I think, I need to identify which instance of the view is active. The <code>TreeLayout</code> command looks something like this:</p> <pre><code>IViewPart findView = HandlerUtil.getActiveWorkbenchWindow(event).getActivePage(). findView( "Views.GraphView"); //I think in the findView I need to give the id of the view [but how can I put the secondary id?] GraphView view = (GraphView) findView; view.changeLayout(); //I wrote this method in the graph view to change the layout //I just tried to print the secondary id, but it did not print anyting System.out.println("From treelayout command:- " + view.getViewSite().getSecondaryId()); </code></pre> <p>So how can I identify which instance of the view is currently active and to operate on it?</p>
