Description Svata Dedic 1999-12-08 23:08:55 UTC 
1. Select any class variable that has been declared by FormEditor.
2. Modify Name, Modifier or Type property. Exception occurs (maybe more than one)


Suggestion: the properties should be displayed as read-only.

[Svata] in build 459, the property retains the old value and does not display any error message (Attempt to edit guarded block r.g.). This could be very confusing.
Comment 1 Svata Dedic 2000-08-17 08:12:59 UTC 
Currently, the code element can not tell the node that it is read-only or the
permitted operations, so the appearance of properties can't be adjusted
accordingly.
The current IDE versions display a message that informs the user that a guarded
block is being modified which is just fine for now.

Comment 3 Tomas Pavek 2002-01-10 15:15:16 UTC 
An old report (was RESOLVED LATER). This is rather a java module 
issue (to recognize the variables in guarded block). Similar to issue 
9512, see also issue 19114.
Comment 4 Martin Matula 2004-11-15 14:43:42 UTC 
The properties are not editable anymore for objects from guarded block.
