Build Identifier: 201107091000 The notion of copyright headers is pretty much the standard across a variety of different projects. Eclipse should support this notion and be able to change it across all files of a project consistently. This would enable a refactoring of the copyright across all the files that have copyright defined. Reproducible: Always
This is not just Java but files in general. The Releng tool already deals with copyrights. Moving there for consideration, though I think a simple regex search/replace would also do the trick in most cases.
Can you elaborate? In the mean time, the copyright tool works in the following way: - right click a project: - click "Fix copyright" And it goes through the whole project to fix the copy rights on various file formats. I'm also working on adding save actions: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=369992 Would that fulfill your request?
This bug is so old, that I think it should be closed. Seems to me the "Releng tool" provides the basic functionality requested. Please re-open if I am missing the point and something other than "Releng tool" was intended.
