Description Oliver Mueller

Build ID:  M20080221-1800
CDT 4.0.3

Steps To Reproduce:
1.inside a managed c++ project, exclude a single source file
2.try to include it by deselecting the exclude button



More information:
when a source file is excluded, the global settings (include paths etc.) are removed from the individual settings. when the exclusion is undone, you cannot restore the project settings. there is the possibility to restore the defaults, but this is not persistent. 
workaround: manually delete the file-specific settings

I'm having the same problem in the Ganymede build

Not reproducible in CDT 7.0.1 and HEAD, looks like fixed.

I think that may have been fixed with one of subtasks of bug 299857.
