Description Michael D. Elder CLA 2006-05-16 14:12:34 EDT
(1) Open the _Project_ Explorer, expand a Library container (JRE is fine)
(2) Select a file (a *.properties file or manifest.mf file; class file will not show the error)
(3) Now turn on link with editor in the _Package_ Explorer.

The file will not be selected or expanded.

The problem is that these elements are of type 'IStorage' and we can't provide a parent chain for these.

Unfortunate but not severe in my opinion.
