- create a workspace with a package that contains a CU - select the CU and start DND. - hover over the container package - press ctrl key to change operation to copy ==> still not able to copy file Note: this was possible with old reorg support. NOTES: EG (9/24/2001 8:06:16 AM) we don't support copy when the file already exists. this is the first complaint that we no longer allow it. How about creating the duplicate elements as "CopyOfOriginalElement.java". AK (9/25/2001 9:43:00 AM) is the following semantic acceptable? (it'll be consistent with the navigator) _copy only_ # if the file (let's asume it has nama A.ext) already exists, then create a file named CopyOfA.ext note this can create names like CopyOf(CopyOf)*A.ext but i don't think it's a problem, really # for files, packages, folders - it's all the same semantics # for java files nothing else than creating a new one with the new name is done (no declaration, reference etc. update) # for packages - only the package declaration in files is updated i.e. changed to CopyOfold.package.name # for other entities - only the straightforward 'copy with rename' operation # no interaction with user - just creates the entities DB (25.09.2001 11:18:14) What exactly does "for other entities - only the straightforward 'copy with rename' operation" mean ? Does the copy action prompt me for a new name when coping other element (e.g. image.gif) and only for CU we use the CopyOf semantic? I know the the Window Explorer is using the CopyOf approach but I must say that I really prefer the Copy-Rename appraoch. I can live with both approaches as long as the UI is consistent. AK (9/25/2001 11:22:48 AM) it'd be CopyOf... everywhere AK (10/9/2001 11:07:16 AM) fixed for 204
