Description Hanna Farah CLA 2004-06-15 14:31:06 EDT
Exporting a project with linked resources should inform the user that the 
linked folders and files will actually be copied into the exported Zip file 
for example. The user might think that only the link information will be 
copied and not the linked items themselves.
Comment 1 Boris Bokowski CLA 2007-01-02 11:18:04 EST
Moving bugs to new Platform/IDE component.
Comment 2 Mike Wilson CLA 2007-06-22 10:50:41 EDT
This is low priority for us, but we would consider a patch if someone provides one.
Comment 3 Boris Bokowski CLA 2009-11-26 16:23:21 EST
Oleg is now responsible for watching bugs in the [LinkedResources] component area.

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.
