Description Aaron Cosand CLA 2003-05-08 13:16:20 EDT 
If I close Eclipse and have several files open, when I re-start eclipse, the 
previously opened files are not re-opened.  This is a change from previous 
behavior.
Comment 1 Olivier Thomann CLA 2003-05-08 14:25:11 EDT 
Move to JDT/UI.
Comment 2 Dirk Baeumer CLA 2003-05-09 04:39:22 EDT 
Restoring open editors is done by platform/ui
Comment 3 Debbie Wilson CLA 2003-05-12 10:36:48 EDT 
Aaron, Exactly which version of Eclipse are you using?  Can you check the .log 
file (found under .metadata directory).  Usually, if the open files are not re-
opened when you restart Eclipse it is because you crashed when Eclipse was 
being shutdown.

Version: 2.1.0

I truncated .log, opened eclispe, opened a file in the my current project, 
closed eclipse and re-opened eclipse.  No file opened by eclipse and .log 
contains nothing
Comment 5 Simon Arsenault CLA 2003-05-14 12:17:30 EDT 
Open the preference dialog, in the Workbench > Editors preference page, is the 
option to close all editors checked?

Do you have other plugins installed beside just the Eclipse SDK? If so, can you 
reproduce this problem with just the Eclipse SDK?
Comment 6 Aaron Cosand CLA 2003-05-14 16:00:46 EDT 
I did have close all editors checked.  I unchecked it and everything works fine 
now.  Thank you for the help and my appologies for the bone-head bug 8-)
Comment 7 Simon Arsenault CLA 2003-05-15 10:44:12 EDT 
Do you remember setting that preference and then just forgot about it? Or did 
it only get checked after you upgraded to 2.1?
Comment 8 Aaron Cosand CLA 2003-05-15 13:08:43 EDT 
I was running 2.1 for some time before the problem appeared.  I was looking 
through the properties for something, I can't remember exactly what, and I 
thought that I had accidentally unchecked it, so I re-checked it.
