I20051101-1204 Open the wizard Import/Export > Import > Existing Projects into Workspace Note that the description on the wizard says "Create new projects from an archive file or directtory. This does not copy the project into the workspace." But now it can...
Created attachment 29176 [details] apply patch to org/eclipse/ui/internal/wizards/datatransfer/messages.properties in org.eclipse.ui.ide
Karice - is this something you are trying to get in for the next build...ie, did you want me to review/commit?
Apparently we are not supposed to be releasing anything until the milestone is declared.
ok, I wasn't sure if this was on a list to go in or not.
Susan, can you check this patch? I just removed the last sentence. I wasn't sure if I should change it to say something like "This can either copy the project into the workspace or point to the project in another workspace location" or just leave it with the one sentence, which seems to be descriptive enough.
Karice - patch looks good. I agree that just simplifying the message is the way to go. It also looks like a mnemonic was added to another message in this patch. Is that intentional?
Yes, i forgot to add the mnemonic for the checkbox when i made the patch adding this feature.
released to head, should appear >20051107. leaving open for Karice to double check and mark fixed.
Created attachment 29552 [details] apply patch to plugin.properties of org.eclipse.ui.ide The same string appears in two different properties files. The description in the wizard selection page is taken from plugin.properties.
sorry this took so long. I applied the patch, actually tested it this time ;-) Released >20051109. But that begs the question...what is the other key in DataTransferMessages (WizardExternalProjectImportPage_description) used for? I reverted it to the old value and it didn't seem to have an effect. It's used in the code, but is the value overridden by what is supplied in plugin properties? just wondering.
The string that was originally changed is set as the wizard's descsription in WizardExternalProjectImportPage which is the public version of this wizard page. We don't reference this page, but I suppose others that we aren't aware of can, so we should maintain the original change.
Sync'd and checked that the wizard description is now accurate. Marking fixed.
