One of my pet peaves with using Eclipse for development is with the standard Java perspective the bottom right hand group of tab which usualy has things like Problems view in it, accidentially clicking the close tab hotspot which exists on each tab that is in focus, because the tabs are so small and change size / move around when in focus this happens a few times per day for me. But I wish to keep the close tab facility on each tab for my editors. So this feature request is to allow the right click action on any tab in the tab group to have a toggle button action on it to enable/disable per-tab close buttons. I can still close tabs by using the right-click Close action if I need to. But this would allow the perspective user to disable the per-tab close buttons for in the bottom right hand group only and retain the per-tab close buttons for all the other views. This preferences should be saved along with the general tabgroup information when eclipse is restarted. The problem wouldn't be so bad for me if the tabs didn't change size and jump around between focus changes. This is essentially the reason why I hit the wrong part of the tab so often with the mouse which makes it a real PITA. I am usually either waiting for the Eclipse UI to catch up with me or the views in the lower right handside at set to automatically come into focus when new data arrives. Like on the console view.

The WAR file must be: -rw-r--r-- 1 dlm dlm 5090028 Feb 21 2005 /home/dlm/workspace/tomcatskel/WebContent/WEB-INF/lib/ll/openamf-1.0RC11/openamf.war As its the only WAR in that project's tree. The "tomcatskel" probject itself is a dynamic web-project and the files in the WEB-INF/lib/ll directory are just a doodling area. They have no significat meaning to the web-project. The WAR in question is publically available archive (so I can attach it if it helps) and I believe it to be a well formed archive. Just to re-iterate these files are in a doodling area and the problem has no impact on my DWPs function. So its up to you if the case warrents any further investigation, I'm just filing the report as I believe ALL Exceptions generated by eclipse are bugs (due to incorrectly handled situations). Even if the file was totally corrupt a validator must be able to detect that and report that without throwing an exception itself. Call this the perfect validator if you will. $ ls -l /home/dlm/workspace/tomcatskel/WebContent/WEB-INF/lib/ll/openamf-1.0RC11/ total 10172 drwxr-xr-x 8 dlm dlm 4096 Mar 22 11:16 build drwxr-xr-x 4 dlm
