Update "Source" view with unsaved changes in Deployment Plan Editor, or prompt user to save before switching to "Source" view -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMODEVTOOLS-350 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMODEVTOOLS-350 Project: Geronimo-Devtools Issue Type: Improvement Components: eclipse-plugin Affects Versions: 2.1.0 Environment: Eclipse Europa Winter, Geronimo 2.1.1, GEP 2.1.0 Reporter: Cedric Hurst Assignee: Tim McConnell Attachments: deploymentPlanUnsavedChanges.avi When editing metadata in one of the graphical views of the Deployment Plan Editor (e.g. "General", "Security", "Deployment"), any unsaved changes are not reflected after switching to the "Source" view. This might be confusing for the user, because the expectation is that they are editing a "working copy" the values of the fields would be consistently reflected in the "Source" view. I am proposing two possible options (in order of preference): 1. Update the "Source" view to reflect unsaved changes 2. Prompt the user to save the Deployment Plan before switching from a graphical view to the "Source" view I will attach a screencast to better demonstrate the issue. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
