Description Jan Lahoda 2009-01-05 12:57:45 UTC

[full trunk build from deadlock, #4726, built from changeset ffab019a785c]

1. Start the IDE
2. Using File/Open File... open a .java or .cpp file - it is opened as a plain text, not as a correct type
3. Enable Java a C/C++ plugins - the opened editors are closed
4. After opening the files again, they are recognized correctly

Requiring the user to manually enable some plugin (or open a project of a given type) seems like a very bad user experience.

True. This functionality is missing. We are tracking it. Just according to UI spec, open file and favorites are 
considered P3 entry point. See:
