Eclipse editor doesn't notice VSS keyword expansion? [message #144614] Wed, 15 October 2003 19:55 Go to next message

We've got Keyword Expansion turned on in our VSS respository and it
works. However, if I have a file open in Eclipse, Save it, Check it in
to VSS, and Check it out. The Eclipse Editor doesn't see the expansion.
I have to close and open the file to get it to see the expansion.
Does this make any sense?

I know that if I have a file open in Eclipse and edit it externally with
some other tool upon return to Eclipse it prompts me to load the new
file (or something like that). Why isn't this happening here?

There are two possible causes of this problem. One possibility is that
the editor is not reloading the new contents when the file changes. The
other is that the VSS plugin is not making the file modification known
to Eclipse. I can't tell from your scenario which it is because Eclipse
editors do an auto-refresh with the local file system when they open a
file. To tell if it is VSS' problem, do the same steps but instead of
opening the file in an editor as the last step, try to rename it. If
this works, its an Eclipse problem. If it fails it's a VSS problem. If
it's an Eclipse problem, you should log a bug against Platform Text (or
JDT Text if its a Java editor).
