Description banifou 2012-12-19 17:26:35 UTC

After trying to rename with Refactoring a variable of a java Class of an open
Web project, the "Cannot refactor JavaBean.java that is defined outside of an open
project." message is displayed. 
I noticed, when I right click on the Project name I see "open required projects" and is selectable! But there is no required projects.
Another Issue I can't use "encapsulate fields" any more. It's not selectable any more.

Operating System: Linux - Ubuntu
Runtime: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.3-b01, mixed mode)

I think I know what happend. I renamed the project after that refactoring doesn't work!!
I created a new web project with existing sources, now refactoring works fine.

Anyway, this shouldn't happen.

Works for me in current dev builds. Please reopen with steps to reproduce if necessary.
