Description ssffleming 2000-07-25 16:24:59 UTC 
To reproduce:

1.  Open a java source file in the editor
2.  Rename the directory the file is in

The editor will pop-up a message indicating that the source has been
externally changed (this is not quite right) and then if you confirm to
update an exception is thrown.
Comment 1 Jaroslav Tulach 2000-07-25 16:28:59 UTC 
This is not file move, but only rename of parent folder. To deal with this
situation the DataLoaderPool.addOperationListener has been added that allows
Java module to listen on rename of a folder.

As soon as the programmers working on Java module find it handy, they can
implement such behaviour.
