Bug 4257

Description Rodrigo Peretti 2001-10-10 23:08:41 EDT

From Eclipse Corner:

pr1GJC7SC is still problematic (moving a project)

Additionally, and this is key, If the target directory contains a read only
file with the same name as in the source directory the operation fails.
Alternatively, if the directory contains writable files with the same name
the contents of the file in the target directory are lost. Ideally, in this
situation the user will be prompted for their action (ie. overwrite the file
y/n?) and the operation will continue.

I have been using Java based projects, but I suspect that in a simple
project you would see the same behaviour. If you try to move from source to
target as below you will see the error.

SourceDir (analogous to a project)
---> aDir
          ---> aFile

TargetDir
---> aDir
         ---> aFile (r/o)

Moving the SourceDir project to TargetDir will fail with the error described
previously. I am using Win2k with NTFS.


NOTES:

	If moving a folder from a project to another, using the packages view,
and the destination project contains a folder with the same name and files
with the same name. File contents are overwritten with no warning.

	AK pls check with new reorg implementation

	there are a few errors reported in this single PR:
	1. moving source folders is not possible in the packages view now so nothing to verify there
	2. moving a folder from project to project (if the destination contains the same file) does show a warning now.
