Source Control Status button

This button indicates the read/write status of the current file. Click it to change the status of the source file displayed in the File Editor pane. You can only edit the file if the Read-Write icon $image\rwrite.gif$ is displayed.

$image\read.gif$ Indicates that the file is read-only. You cannot edit this file without changing its status.

$image\rwrite.gif$ Indicates that the file is editable (read-write). You can edit this file without changing its status.

$image\lock.gif$ Indicates that the file is locked. You cannot edit this file without changing its status. Clicking the button produces a menu option to lock or unlock the file, as well as use source code version control, if available.

If you attempt to edit a file that is read-only, RealView Debugger displays a prompt giving you the option to change the status of the file.

$image\openred.gif$ See the RealView Debugger v1.8 Project Management User Guide for more information about using a Version Control System.

$image\exclaim.gif$ RealView Debugger opens all files as locked even if they are read-write in the directory.
