Hi,

i'm newbie at the Eclipse-Platform so my question may be very simple for
you.

How could i disable the write protection of a file using a shortcut on
my keybord?

I try to find a answer at google but without any result.

I allready know to do this with rihgt click and disabling "Read only"
checkbox.

Thanks in advance.

Stefan

I'd also like to know the answer to this, but one question further, is it
possible to change the read/write status of multiple files at once? At the
moment, I use Windows Explorer to do this, but it'd be nice to be able to do
it through the Eclipse file navigator.

You cannot.

If the file is open in a text or Java editor then another possibility is
to click into the editor's status field.

You can do it in resource properties dialog with mouse (I don't know can
you associate shortcut with this action).
And you certainly and easy can add this function programmatically.

Eclipse's UI won't do this on its own. However, I've seen a sample
plugin out there that contributes an action for changing the read/write
status of all selected files. I can't remember where I saw it, but
Google should turn it up.
