Question

File view to edit a file, but it's not changed on file system.

I have a drive letter mapped to a network location.  Using File View to navigate to and edit a file, I save the file, but if I open it with a browser or notepad the changes aren't actually there.  Even though everything in CFBuilder indicates the file was updated.

Anyone else having this happen, or am I missing something?

I was not able to reproduce this issue. Files are opening fine from File view. Can you please try restarting Builder with a -clean option.

I started CFB with -clean but no difference. Not sure if this is related but in the Navigator view, this project is shared using Subclipse.  I believe the text I see though should still be the file that is actually on the disk though, and not the repository.  I still have to close the project to see the actual file that is on disk.

Hi,

We are not able to reproduce the issue.

It would be helpful if you can provide more details on your setup.

We tried checkout as project from subclipse   to a network location.

Then we opened the checked out files from network drive using File View and edited the file and we could see that the file has the edit when opened using  notepad.

If you simply checked out from the svn perspective, the  project created will be in the workspace .

Thanks

A little more info...

x: mapped to server1 and y: mapped to server 2.  I have a "CF Project" located on x: where a file abc.cfm exists.  However, when I use File View to open Y:\abc.cfm, it actually opens x:\abc.cfm from the CF Project.

If I close the CF Project (x:), then in File View I open y:\abc.cfm, it actually shows me y:\abc.cfm.  But as soon as I open the CF Project again, a File View of y:\abc.cfm displays x:\abc.cfm.
