Re: [bpel-dev] Undo for namespaces change

Hi Simon,

I think that we should be able to undo changes done in source tab in
design view and vice versa. This is why we may want to have effects in
graphical view.
I've looked at this problem a little deeper and it seem that we have
big inconsistency in how whole undo mechanism behaves. We're having
two completely independent stacks for design and source views. And
wrapping reconciliation into UpdateModelCommand results in following:
we change something in source tab, switch to design, undo text change,
and source tab has 2 undo's instead of 0.
To fix this problem I see two ways. To have one command stack for both
tabs. Or to have some kind of placeholder command that says that undo
should be done in other stack.

I'll take a look at your scenario with disappearing activities and try
to find out where the problem is if I manage to reproduce it.

Thanks,
Dennis
