Modified without checkout: Perforce
Hi,
Intellij displays few files as "modified without checkout". I've enabled 'Show Clear Read-Only Status dialog box', and intellij displays alert box whenever I try to modify the source file, I select modify using version control option.
Few times I observed that my perforce tickets gets expired and intellij shows a warning message and it goes ahead and clears read-only status of the file. I dont want intellij to clear the read-only status without checking out the file from perforce. Is there a way to enforce this?
I am using Intellij 9.0 (95.66) and perforce is the version control system.
Thanks,
Chandra

Hello chandra,
Please turn off Settings | Version Control | Background | Perform Edit/Checkout
in background. In this case IDEA will always perform a checkout operation
under a modal progress dialog and will not clear the read-only status by
itself.
