Description Michael Rennie

Providing the all instances and all references features in the outline view requires that we open a popup dialog to display results. Currently this does not work as expected, since we cannot get the handle of the current control for the JavaOutlinePage, and therefore have no location on which to open the popup. 

This page should provide a Control adapter to allow access to the control of the part, so we can resolve a correct anchor point for the popup.

getSite().getShell()

that call is not sufficient to obtain an (x, y) coordinate to open a popup on, we need a handle to the tree control.

If I use the site, or any of the available handles, at the time of opening the popup, the (x,y) coordinates are always returned as (0,0). We opened bug 174233 and made a workaround for this problem, but that does not work very well as it will open the popup in last known good coordinates (might be on the other side of the screen).

sorry but we won't expose that.

We do not want to expose that it is a tree. Maybe in the future we use the Browser widget, or a table or custom draw.
