Description Karen Butzke CLA 2010-06-07 13:24:20 EDT
On the Project Facets properties page it would be nice if it prompted you to apply your changes when you attempt to switch to another properties page. An example of this is the Java Build Path properties page. If I add a new source folder and switch to another properties page it prompts me:

"The Java Build Path property page contains unsaved modifications. Do you want to save changes so that other build path related property pages can be updated?"

I often forget to apply the changes to the Project Facets page, then I switch the the Java Persistence page and it is empty except for a warning that uncommitted changes are present on the Project Facets page. Then I have to switch back to that page, apply changes, and come back to Java Persistence.
