Description Karl-Heinz Damm CLA 2003-10-07 09:18:30 EDT 
Saving open editors list and cursor positions when closing a project 
with "Close Project".

Restoring formerly open editors and cursor positions in texteditor windows when 
re-opening a project with "Open Project".
Comment 1 Dani Megert CLA 2003-10-07 09:33:32 EDT 
Platform UI would have to do the restoring of the IEditorPart(s).
Comment 2 Nick Edgar CLA 2003-10-07 23:17:57 EDT 
Editors should be able to save/restore their state in the same way that views 
do (see IViewPart.saveState(IMemento)).

However, I'm not sure I agree that editors should be saved/restored when a 
project is closed/reopened.

I'd like to understand how you're using project open/close at a higher level.
Using project open/close to manage editor clutter seems pretty heavyweight.

This would allow to implement feature  44295.

Sorry, not for 3.0.  Will consider post-3.0.
Comment 5 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2009-08-30 02:32:45 EDT 
As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
