Description John Arthorne CLA 2001-10-15 17:34:52 EDT 
A builder should throw OperationCanceledException if the user canceled during 
the build.  This is not mentioned in the builder API.
Comment 1 John Arthorne CLA 2001-10-29 17:05:00 EST 
Fixed.  Added a line in the javadoc recommending how cancelation should be 
handled:

 * Cancellation requests should be propagated to the caller by 
 * throwing <code>OperationCanceledException</code>.

Also added the following to IWorkspaceRunnable#run:

 * <p>
 * Implementors of this method should check the progress monitor
 * for cancellation when it is safe and appropriate to do so.  The cancellation
 * request should be propagated to the caller by throwing 
 * <code>OperationCanceledException</code>.
 * </p>
