Description Martin Oberhuber CLA 2007-02-20 09:09:04 EST 
ISystemFilePreferencesConstants is currently "internal". But ISystemFilePreferencesConstants.SHOWHIDDEN is needed by every file subsystem contributor.

Access to the "show hidden" Preference should be made public API, either via an access method (getShowHidden()) or by making the constant public.

Marking INVALID. The correct solution is to make SHOWHIDDEN a view-only Preference which does not affect APIs. Bug 180485 has been created to track this.
