Description Tod Creasey CLA 2002-04-02 10:54:19 EST 
When I was switching from the Java Perspective to the Debug Perspective the 
method AbstractSelectionService.partDeactivated() caused a plugin (I am not 
sure which) to be activated as a result of the PlugInAction.selectionChanged() 
method. This may be as a result of activating the new plugin but it should be 
investigated.

STEPS
1) Create a fresh workbench
2) Import all of Eclipse with source
3) Switch to the Java Perspective
4) Switch to the Debug Perspective - somethine gets loaded
Comment 1 Tod Creasey CLA 2002-05-03 13:55:28 EDT 
This is due to extra activation by the debug perspective. Recheck when Bug 
12792 is fixed.
Comment 2 Tod Creasey CLA 2002-05-03 13:58:32 EDT 
Should be Bug 15214
Comment 3 Tod Creasey CLA 2002-05-14 14:17:50 EDT 
The debug perspective will continue to run actions added to the display view as 
this is a requirement for the debugger. 

Closing this PR as this is known behaviour.
