To say the least. But the real root of the problem is the mixing of two concepts in the project file, the project configuration and the user session configuration. Those two should really be separated into two files. I consider the project configuration to be a source file you need to store in version control, while I don't care a bit about whether the user session information is lost or not. It follows that the IDEA should ask when saving the project configuration, while the session settings can be saved automatically... _______________________________________________ Eap-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.intellij.com/mailman/listinfo/eap-list
