Missing "read only" checkbox in file properties dialog [message #265160]

Hello,

i'm using eclispe 3.4.1 with a 1.6.0_10 JDK from sun.

In this version it seems eclispe can't remove the write protection from
the files in the projects.

First the checkboxes for "read only" and "archived" are missing the
property dialog (right mouse click ->properties in the navigator view).

Second if you edit a write protected file the queastion to remove the
write protection appears but is has no effect. Clicking yes or no don't
remove the write protection.

Is there a setting i have to change or is this an bug on 64 bit eclipse.

kind regards

peter

does nobody have an idea how to change the writeability of source files in
an eclipse 64 bit version.

I can't find something about that in the bug database.

Is this a known bug?

Peter

Rather, I think this is a bug in your filesystem. I have no problems
with this on 64-bit openSUSE Linux.

i forget to mention that i'm running it on a windows based mashine.
Until now i tried it with vista 64 and win2k3 both 64 bit systems.

Yesterday i found the following message in the error log:

Could not load library: localfile_1_0_0.dll. This library provides
platform-specific optimizations for certain file system operations. This
library is not present on all platforms, so this may not be an error. The
resources plug-in will safely fall back to using java.io.File
functionality.

can this cause my problem and is there a solution available?

regards

Peter
