Refactor
Eclipse supports two types of refactoring operations:
- Moving an object to a different directory.
- Renaming an object.
When you complete either of these operations, the Rename command is invoked to record the change of pathname in the repository. The results are displayed in the AccuRev Console View.
Note: The
Eclipse
Delete command removes an object from local disk storage, but does not perform any
AccuRev command. (In particular, it does not perform a
Defunct command). If you
Delete a version-controlled element, its status becomes
(missing).
Note: Do not use the
Move or
Rename commands when you are not logged in to an
AccuRev Server. Doing so causes changes to the
Eclipse workspace but not to the
AccuRev workspace. Visual cues indicate that you are not logged in to the
AccuRev Server, including a greyed-out repository decoration on the root of the
Package Explorer
tree
and missing decorations on files and directories. See
Setting Label Decorations for more information.

Move
Eclipse supports moving an object to a different directory, using either of these methods:
- Right-click the object and select from the context menu.
- Drag-and-drop the object from one directory to another.
Note: Do not use the
Move command to move an object from one
Eclipse project to a project that is part of a different
AccuRev workspace. The object will be moved, but the
AccuRev
Rename command will not be invoked. The object will have
(missing) status in the source location and
(external) status in the destination location.
