Using the Plug-In for Eclipse › Refresh Checked-Out Status

Refresh Checked-Out Status

The Refresh checked-out status action lets you query the repository to determine if selected objects have reserved (R-tag) versions and then update your WorkArea status indicators accordingly. If you have a file checked out (reserved) and someone else deletes the R-tag version from the repository, the repository does not have the version reserved but the WorkArea still shows its status indicator as reserved (checked out). You can resolve this mismatch in your WorkArea by using the Refresh checked-out status action.

To update the WorkArea status indicators because of changes in the repository, right-click the node for which you want refreshed status indicators, and select Refresh checked-out status from the shortcut menu.

Note: Selected nodes include those explicitly selected and the descendents of the selected nodes.

The WorkArea node is refreshed with the latest status indicators as follows:

• Every selected node in the WorkArea with an R-tag in the repository is marked as checked-out.
• Nodes in the WorkArea that show as checked-out are set to Normal status if an R-tag version is not found for an item.
