Bug with the Task view? [message #38138] Mon, 19 May 2003 12:08 Go to next message

I have just noticed what I believe to be a bug. I double clicked on a Task
entry for one of my files, and removed the duplicated imports. I also
changed the CVS javadoc header at this time. I then saved my file (and the
tasks vanished from the Task view) and closed the file down. I then did a
cvs diff only to find no changes had been made. I then opened the class
again (this time from the package view) and saw my changes had been
reverted - or so I thought. I went back to the task view (I had left one
duplicated import in place) and once again double clicked to open it and I
found my changes again.
It seems there are 2 versions of this file floating around (in fact I can
reproduce this for every class in my project so far). One that can be
accessed via the standard package view (and whose changes are reflected on
the filesystem when made) and one that is accessed via the Task view (and
whose changes are not stored to disk on the same way).
Does this sound strange to anyone else, or have I just mis-understood
something here? For the record I'm runing Version: 2.1.0, Build id:
200303272130 on windows 2000 with java 1.4.2. My project is based on a
module checkout from my CVS repository.

Thanks in advance,
Sam

After some closer investigation it appears I had 2 projects for the same
CVS module! The task view was accessing one project, whilst when going to
the package view I was looking at a different project. I deleted all other
projects, but am now trying to work out how to get Eclipse to
\'regenerate\' the task view. I have tried both \'Refresh\' and \'Rebuild
All\' but neither seems to help.

Once again, thanks in advance!

Truly a catalogue of errors today! I hang my head in shame - it seems when
checking out the original CVS project I neglected to make it a Java
project! I accept the proud mantle of Eclipse Newbie henceforth!

Thanks for your patience,

sam
