Plugin Eclipse 3.x hide perspective bar and "Quick Access" in my Perspective programmatically

I created one perspective in my plugin eclipse. I want hide the perspective bar and "Quick Access".

I tried to use this:

((WorkbenchWindow)PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow()).setPerspectiveBarVisible(false);

but doesn't work.

Any idea for this and for hide "Quick Access"?

For the perspective bar, in your org.eclipse.ui.application.WorkbenchWindowAdvisor do the following:

@Override
public void preWindowOpen() {
    IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer configurer = getWindowConfigurer();
    configurer.setShowPerspectiveBar(false);
}

As for the "Quick Access", Eclipse 3.x did not have this search field. You probably run an Eclipse 4.x using 3.x layout style (e.g. not e4).

You can try to remove it using CSS. In the plugin.xml where your org.eclipse.core.runtime.products is declared add the following to the <product> declaration:

 <property
       name="applicationCSS"
       value="platform:/plugin/PLUGIN_NAME/css/default.css ">
 </property>

And your CSS should contain:

#SearchField {
  visibility:hidden;
}
