Description James Moody CLA 2002-10-08 10:22:23 EDT 
I've consistently had major problems getting the java browsing views to track 
the current editor. I have the following settings, which may be very important:
-Close editors automatically: true
-Number of open editors: 1

Open a Java file with Ctrl-Shift-T. Select a type name in the open editor. 
Press F3. The new editor is opened but the java browsing views do NOT update; 
they still have the old item selected.

Might be related to a PR I filed some time ago against Platform-UI: part events
are not sent correctly if the editor replaces the content. Will have to find the
PR and see if it is the cause for that bug.
Comment 2 Dani Megert CLA 2003-01-15 11:08:52 EST 
The input of the editor part is replaced. No part event is fired.
What is the correct way to be informed that the editor now shows another document?

looks like a duplicate of bug 19087.

Released fix to the HEAD stream.
The new method in IPartListener2 is commented out until the implementors in 
other plugins add the implementation. The sender in PartListenerList2 is 
commented out as well.

JavaBrowsingPart should be changed to use IPartListener2 instead. I hacked it 
so I could test the fix and it seems to work.

Daniel, if you want to change JavaBrowsingPart you do not need to wait. You 
can implement IPartListener2 adding this new method.
Comment 6 Dani Megert CLA 2003-01-28 04:19:54 EST 
Adapted code where I have commit rights (TypeHierarchyViewPart and Java
BrowsingPart)
Available in I20030128.

Did you inform the other clients to adapt?
Comment 7 Jared Burns CLA 2003-01-28 10:54:18 EST 
The Debug UI implementor has been updated as well.
Comment 8 Eduardo Pereira CLA 2003-02-07 11:54:22 EST 
Tested in the M5 build.
