And the view is not where it is expected to be.


   <extension
         point="org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions">
      <perspectiveExtension
            targetID="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.JavaPerspective">
         <view
               ratio="0.5"
               relative="org.eclipse.ui.views.TaskList"
               relationship="right"
               id="aview.views.SampleView">
         </view>
      </perspectiveExtension>
   </extension>

The 'Tasks' view is not added to the 'Java' perspective by default. You need to pick a view that the 'Java' perspective does define in its layout.
Comment 3 public CLA 2011-08-17 08:20:39 EDT 
It is a standard example from Eclipse examples.

Sorry, you're right, the template is wrong.

PDE, please modify the template so that it points to a view that actually is defined in the 'Java' perspective by default.
Comment 5 Curtis Windatt CLA 2012-03-23 12:01:11 EDT 
Fixed in master.  The view will now be put relative to the problems view.
