Build Identifier: M20110210-1200 The symptom of the problem is that the property sheet is ignoring the correct selection in the following use case. We have 5 active view parts in our RCP application's perspective. When part B is selected and the RCP app is closed the platform ectivates part B then activates part A, but part B does not seem to see that part A is activated. When debugging in PropertySheet::partActivated() the order of events is: Part B Activated Part A Activated Part B Activated* But clicking on Part A does not result in a part-activated event the property sheet, so its selection is then ignored. This seems to be caused because the activation of Part B marked with * above happens as a deferred action in PartService.deferControl(IWorkbenchPartReference) and in this deferred action, the part service does not seem to be aware of the activation of Part B, it still thinks Part A is activated. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Make sure that the clear workspace check box is unselected on the launch configuration. 1.Select a part view. 2.Close the RCP application. 3.Restart the application. 4.Select a widget inside a part view that the property sheet view is supposed to listen to for selection. 5.Property Sheet View is not populated.
