Restoring Terminal View on start works only for one window #2175

Description

@ppalaga

This is a followup of #2155

Steps to reproduce

From a fresh installation and clean workspace:

  • Invoke "Show in local terminal" from two different nodes (folder-1 and folder-2) in Project Explorer
  • This opens two tabs inside the Terminal View
  • Open a new Workbench window by using the main menu: Window > New Window
  • Invoke "Show in local terminal" from two forther nodes (folder-3 and folder-4) in Project Explorer
  • This opens two tabs inside the Terminal View
  • Restart Eclipse through the main menu: File > Restart
  • Expected:
    • The two terminals in Window 1 are restored showing folder-1 and folder-2 in a single Terminal view
    • The two terminals in Window 2 are restored showing folder-3 and folder-4 in a single Terminal view
  • Actual:
    • The two terminals are restored only in the Window from which the File > Restart action was invoked
    • No terminals are restored in the other window

Here is some relevant log output

I do not think it is relevant.

Tested under this environment:

  • I understand reporting an issue to this OSS project does not mandate anyone to fix it. Other contributors may consider the issue, or not, at their own convenience. The most efficient way to get it fixed is that I fix it myself and contribute it back as a good quality patch to the project.
