Can I cancel/undo a refactoring in a listener? Follow

Created June 24, 2004 10:29

The openapi really is cool. I wrote a little plugin that updates properties files whenever some elements are moved/renamed. Big time saver.

Yet, when anything wents wrong doing this, I'd like to cancel/undo the refactoring. Currently I pop up a dialog (using Messages.showErrorDialog()), show a message describing the problem and tell the user to "please undo".

Is there a better solution, so that the refactoring is undone automatically? (I'd have to show the dialog anyway, off course, but that would ensure a consistent state.)

Not at the moment. Sorry.
