           Summary: file is refreshed automatically when changed outside
                    kdevelop
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 3.5.1
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Version:           3.5.1 (using KDE 3.5.9)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

This report is forwarded from Kubuntu (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdevelop/+bug/83538) submitted by Amnon Aaronsohn

When a file which is open in kdevelop is changed on disk, kdevelop re-loads it automatically without asking the user. This operation is not undo-able and thus can result in data loss.

To recreate the bug:
 (1) open a file in kdevelop
 (2) save it
 (3) change it outside of kdevelop (e.g. "echo test > file")
 (4) the buffer in kdevelop is updated automatically

Step (2) is important - - if the buffer in kdevelop isn't save then kdevelop doesn't reload the file. (but it doesn't warn you when saving the file that it changed on the disk, which is another bug...)

kdevelop version 3.3.4 using kde 3.5.5

Also occurs in version 3.5.1 using KDE 3.5.9
