Description Markus Keller CLA 2010-12-13 05:32:15 EST 
N20101212-2000

- import org.eclipse.ui.ide and org.eclipse.ui.ide.application from CVS
- open this file:
/org.eclipse.ui.ide/src/org/eclipse/ui/internal/ide/messages.properties
- Ctrl+Click on the key on line 952:
IDEApplication_workspaceCannotLockTitle=Workspace Cannot Be Locked

=> just beeps but doesn't open the reference in IDEApplication#checkInstanceLocation(Shell). Problem is probably that the reference is in another plug-in.

Deepak, please have a look. I guess the search scope is confined to the declaring project. This is necessary for the textual search for performance reasons, but the Java search engine should be fast enough to do a full workspace search.

Right, the patch should do the job.

I quickly tried this with my large dev workspace and I do not see any noticeable change in performance.
