Description Tomasz Zarna CLA 2011-04-15 07:44:08 EDT
HEAD but also 3.6.1

1. Open a new workspace
2. Import Team Project Set from bug 340666, attachment 191685 [details]
3. Select the 2 projects, choose Compare With > Each Other
4. Open a difference, e.g. .classpath
5. "Copy All from Left to Right" and then immediately followed by "Copy All from Right to Left"
=> Editor becomes dirty (good).

6. Close the editor.
=> "Resources Changed (outside the compare editor)" dialog shows up. How come?

Strange thing, looks like a timing issue. I can reproduce your scenario, but when I wait for a while and between "Copy All from Left to Right" and "Copy All from Right to Left" this issue doesn't appear.

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.

If the bug is still relevant, please remove the "stalebug" whiteboard tag.
