Hi! I am developing a simple plugin which displays the list of files in
folder outside the workspace. I know this can only be implemented through
the linked resource method. I also need to keep track of changes that have
been made to these files(i.e. delete and added etc). The
IResourceChangelistener is not sufficient since it is only appropriate for
changes made by the workspace. I need to monitor the files at all times
and refresh the view to reflect the changes made by other programs or
through windows explorer. As far I know this can be achieved by using the
org.eclipse.core.resource.win32 fragment, but my problem is that i can
locate the fragment in the plugin directory but i cant import it to the
view class. I have looked around for articles on how to use/activate
fragments but found nothing. Can anyone please provide me with some
insight into this issue? examples of how to use this fragment would be
great. Thanks

The Windows download of the SDK contains the fragment but you don't need
that fragment directly: it's a user preference whether changes outside
Eclipse are tracked and reported to via resource deltas (see Window >
Preferences > Workspace > Refresh automatically.

Which one? You didn’t quote any context, so I don’t know what you are
talking about. Read op on some netiquette.

Yes, since it can be found using
ResourcesPlugin.getPlugin().getPluginPreferences() as a Boolean with
a key of ResourcesPlugin.PREF_AUTO_REFRESH. However, since it is
not your own preference and it's controllable by the user, I'd
discourage changing it on your own.
