Subject	[platform-ui-dev] Resolving Resource Links

I apologize if this message is duplicated.  I
received an error when I
sent it the first time.

I'm working on implementing an enhancement request that I have submitted
(https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=208085).

It involves notifying the user that a project being imported references
a resource variable that isn't defined in the workspace.

I'm looking in the
org.eclipse.ui.internal.wizards.datatransfer.WizardProjectsImportPage
page createExistingProject method.

I'm able to access the project members and determine which ones are
links after the project has been created and opened.  From here, I
use
the Workspace.validateLinkLocation method to determine whether the link
is resolved or not by checking the returned status for a value of
VARIABLE_NOT_DEFINED_WARNING.

Does this sound like I'm heading in the right direction?  Are there
any
special considerations I need to handle that might not be initially
obvious?

I'm also looking for some help with the next steps to take.  I was
hoping to pop up a dialog displaying a list of undefined Resource
Variables.  The dialog would have a button that allowed the user to
define the variables.  Does this sound doable?  I am currently
able to
display an ErrorDialog using the Display.asyncExec method.  Is this
the
correct approach?
