Comment 1 Iain Houston CLA 2010-08-27 19:57:18 EDT
I now realise that this is a duplicate of Bug 281381.
New user comment: this has not been fixed for over a year yet seems fundamental to the workflow of Eclipse on a (local) testing network. Be glad to help fix problem in due course when I've had a bit more time to acclimatise myself to Eclipse.
