[ptp-dev] Regular vs. Remote C/C++ editor ( [Bug 362499] C/C++ Mark Occu

[Beth Tibbitts <tibbitts@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Anybody know how we can fix the remote C/C++ editor to have the mark occurrences button (and behavior) of the regular C/C++ editor?
Do we still need the remote editor if we are doing sync projects?
I guess we can fix the file assoc?  The content types pages says ".c(locked)" and it won't let me change anything, plus I can't see the association with the remote editor.

When RDT is installed the Remote C/C++ editor is the default.

This works for me.
Note that the button appears and enables only when a C/C++ Editor has the
focus.
We haven't changed that behavior for a very long time and it is exactly the
same as JDT's.

Since bug 298696 we have aligned key bindings with those of JDT, ie. on carbon
you need to press Option+Command+O to toggle mark occurrences.

Are you maybe using some C/C++ Editor derivative?
