Description Gunnar Wagenknecht CLA 2007-02-21 03:35:12 EST 
It would be cool if there would be a rename bundle id operation that would update all references to a bundle if the bundle id is renamed.
Comment 1 Brian Bauman CLA 2007-03-02 16:44:14 EST 
The dream is becoming a reality.  With the next build we should have a "rename..." action on the plug-ins view.  It also supports the F2 shortcut for renaming.  This action is only available on workspace bundles.  During the renaming, you can choose to rename require-bundle references in other workspace projects.  You can also rename the project name to match the new bundle-symbolicName.

When I find more time, I will include this action in the Plug-in Dependencies view and some source pages.
Comment 2 Gunnar Wagenknecht CLA 2007-03-03 06:30:46 EST 
AWESOME! With this action we enter the bundle refactoring area. :)
Comment 3 Brian Bauman CLA 2007-03-15 15:52:10 EDT 
Included support for renaming in the Manifest Source page (context menu) and Dependencies View (context menu only).  

Getting the F2 shortcut to work on the Dependencies View is going to take some time since the view has multiple pages.  Was able to get it to work, but once a different view/page was selected, the short cut would no longer work.

If you would like to see this rename action go elsewhere in PDE, please reopen this bug.
