Re: [platform-vcm-dev] Copy Listener

["Kevin McGuire" <Kevin_McGuire@xxxxxxx>]

I believe you are correct and that there is no good way to do it.

The following bug report discusses the need for copy being a part of the
move/delete hook:
      http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=13530

And, actually, we were just discussing this issue a few weeks ago.  Can you
outline your requirement for it?  It would help us to understand the
parameters of the problem.  Clearly we believed that explicit copy
notification wasn't required by providers -- that 'add' was enough.

Hi everyone,


I'm in a situation where I need to know when files get copied from one
location to another. Unfortunately, the IMoveDeleteHook does not notify me
of copies. I tried using the IResourceChangeListener but as far as I can
tell there is no way to determine whether a file was copied or added some
other way. I only need to know about the copies for my repository provider.
Does anyone know how this can be done?


Thanks in advance,
Joe
