Description Philipe Mulet CLA 2002-05-22 07:50:48 EDT
Build 20020521 - F1

When attempting to team/update a file on which an outgoing change was made, 
update does nothing, and doesn't surface it to the user.

Team/commit does complain if unable to proceed, would expect update to behave 
in a similar fashion.

This is how CVS works. Team/Update will load all remote changes into your local 
working copy.

If you are using Team/Update and you want to see which files have outgoing 
changes, open the CVS console before performing the update. The console will 
show the results of the update (which files had mergable conflicts, which ones 
had unmergable conflicts and which ones have outgoing changes).

Word of warning: Only use Team/Update if you know CVS. If there are "real" 
conflicts (i.e. those that effect the same line of a file) then CVS will add 
markup to the file during the update. Resolving these conflicts in this manner 
is not pleasant.

The above should be added to the doc somewhere

Hello,
I am a computer science majored student in the University.

since I started working and studying using eclipse I have never had any problem with it.

But today I faced a problem which is that 
when I am typing my code, the compiler does not complain, does not give suggestions, and it keeps telling me that I am offline, when I am not!
I read online that it might work if I tried to go to preferences >> java >>  editor >> content assist >> advanced. But I also did not find that.

I am pretty sure there is a way to find what is going on, but I am not aware of it, so please try to help me as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance.
