Why Does IFileModificationValidator Encounter "does not match outer scope rule" Error? [message #230329]

I have an implementation of IFileModificationValidator.validateEdit() that
copies a file before it's first edited and that stores the copy in another
branch of the resource tree. A few months ago, when I upgraded to a new
integration build, the implementation stopped working. Now when it tries to
create a folder to hold the file copy, the implementation encounters this
error:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Attempted to beginRule: P/Test, does not
match outer scope rule: F/Test/src/test

at org.eclipse.core.internal.runtime.Assert.isLegal(Assert.java :56)

at
org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.ImplicitJobs$ThreadJob.illega lPush(ImplicitJo
bs.java:86)

at
org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.ImplicitJobs$ThreadJob.push(I mplicitJobs.java
:167)

at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.ImplicitJobs.begin(ImplicitJo bs.java:241)

at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.JobManager.beginRule(JobManag er.java:149)

org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.WorkManager.checkIn(Work Manager.java:88)

org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.Workspace.prepareOperati on(Workspace.jav
a:1521)

at org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.Folder.create(Folder.jav a:84)

at org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.Folder.create(Folder.jav a:116)

....

It appears that a rule is in place that limits the effect of validateEdit()
to the branch of the resource tree that holds the file original. Can anyone
help me understand what's actually going on and suggest a way around this
obstacle? Thanks. /Jim White

See bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=50631 for more
details. We will be fixing this for M9.
