Hi,

In my DSL, I would like to be able to rename a class.
Everything is in place as it should but whenever I attempt
a rename refactoring I get a message from the RenameRefactoringExecuter
saying: "Refactoring is not applicable".

When I look at the refactoringProcessors that are involved,
two of them are created:
-one RenameTypeProcessor that should rename the class itself.
-one RenameVirtualMethodProcessor that renames the return Type of a contained method ... And that type is the enclosing Class renamed by the first processor.

Is it normal there is a conflict there ? How should I address that kind of problem ?

Thanks.
BR

Aurel

Edit: the fail happens in the "isApplicable()" check of the second processor but it's on the Eclipse side I guess...
