How to programatically close a view in eclipse application?

I want to programatically close a view in eclipse application. The view is a introPart with id: myProduct.intro I tried:

IWorkbenchPage page = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage();
page.hideView(page.findView("myProduct.intro"));

But it did not work, any other way to do this or what am i doing wrong?

You can also use more generic way :

//Get current page    
IWorkbenchPage wp=PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage();

//Find desired view :
IViewPart myView=wp.findView("myViewId");

//Hide the view :
wp.hideView(myView);

Try:

IIntroPart introPart = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getIntroManager().getIntro();

PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getIntroManager().closeIntro(introPart);
