Currently CVS quickdiff capture errors on every new opened file when working offline (when traveling) with project that have configured sharing. These errors get captured in an ugly popup dialog that may came up in an unfortunate moment (e.g. when facing other errors). I wonder if it would be better if those quickdiff errors would be reported to CVS console and don't make visual noice in the Eclipse UI.
Makes sense but we wont have time to address this in 3.2. Patches will be accepted.
We are hoping to find the time in 3.3 to address issue related to working disconnected.
Eugene, I cannot reproduce described behaviour (Eclipse 3.3). Could you provide reproduction steps?
I think what you need to do to reproduce the problem is turn on CVS quick diff and open up a bunch of editors. Then, shut down eclipse, unplug your network connection and then open eclipse. As you activate editors, quickdiff will attempt a connection and fail. At this point , I think we need to move this off to 3.4.
Created attachment 66878 [details] quick diff buffered errors In eclipse 3.3m7 such behavior does not exists - no error dialog, no log entry even when there was no connection. But I have notice that IStatus'es of quick diff problems are buffered and displayed when other error happens - see attachment.
The attachment is unreadable. Perhaps you specified the wrong type when you attached it?
This is due to the new status handler support. Marking as worksforme. If you feel that improvements still need to be made, feel free to reopen.
