Description Francis Upton IV

Build ID: I20080325-0100

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Make a refactoring failure like in bug 224028
2. You should be able to select and copy the reason information so that you can report a bug on it
3. You can't (right click does nothing)


More information:
In general with these error dialogs, we need to make it easy for the user to capture what is going on so they can accurately report the error.  There are a number of possible solutions to this.

Can you attach a screencap of this dialog?  I'm trying to figure out if it's one of ours or another one.

Hey Kim, I confirmed this dialog is the LTK RefactorStatusDialog and the class that has the problem is the RefactorStatusViewer.

I don't know the right product/component combination to move this to LTK, can you do that?

Markus, can you have a look at this? Copy to Clipboard on the error would be nice.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
