Description Dirk Baeumer

3.0

Refactoring calls validateEdit for all files that it is going to modify. If 
the file is under version control and the version control system is integrated 
into Eclipse the Team provider can make the file writeable. However if the VCS 
is "external" the file stays read-only. 

Core resources should provide a default IFileModificationValidator that asks 
the user to make files writeable. This will be active if no team provider is 
present. Additionally the validator could be controlled via a preference.

I thought team already provided a default file modification validator. Michael?

Yes, Team has a default provider. This problem was fixed in 3.1 M2 (see bug 
28218).
