Peter De Bruycker commented on RCP-489:
---------------------------------------

Are you sure you are working with the latest code?

I checked it, and the application is started on the EDT:

in ApplicationLauncher.launchMyRichClient application.start() is called using SwingUtilities.invokeLater

hope this helps,

Peter

> The ApplicationLauncher should start the Application on the EDT or the showPage()-Method should be called the first time on the EDT.
> On Views it is often the case that in onFocusGained() you make a asynchronous remote-call to get the data to set in the model in the view.
> So it is a good thing, to put some Assert.isTrue(SwingUtilities.isisEventDispatchThread()) in your Views, to check, that the model or gui-components are never changed outside the EDT.
> But now the check in Views is the first-time not possible, because the Lifecycle-Methods of the Views are called the first time, when the Application is starting, outside the EDT.
