RSE Extensions locking files too long after compare

I've seen this come up on the list a few times recently, and it happened
to me today too. I just so happened to have the source for the RSE
Extensions downloaded, so I thought I'd see if I could fix the problem. My
Eclipse plugin development skills are not quite there yet - but I hope
this info will help someone to fix this problem.

How to recreate bug:
On the System i, make sure you have an identical source PF member (MBRA)
in two different source files SRCFA and SRCFB. In my case, it was
QRPGLESRC in two different libraries.
Open WDSC.
Expand a source member filter including SRFA/MBRA or SRCB/MBRA.
Log in if necessary to connect to the System i.
Right-click MBRA.
RSE Extensions -> Compare.
The "No differences ..." dialogue will pop up.
Click OK

The source PF that contained the member you right-clicked will now be
locked *SHRRD by the RSE comm. job QRWTSRVR.

My attempts to debug this problem lead me to believe that the happens in
the CompareAction class. The part where the compare is set up contains
this code:
if (dialog.isOpenForEdit()) {
ExtensionsPlugin.getDefault
().getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().addPartListener(
new IPartListener() {
public void partClosed(IWorkbenchPart
part) {
if (part instanceof EditorPart) {
EditorPart editorPart =
(EditorPart)part;
if
(editorPart.getEditorInput() == fInput) {
fInput.removeIgnoreFile();
ExtensionsPlugin.
getDefault
().getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().removePartListener(
this);
}
}
}
public void
partActivated(IWorkbenchPart part) {}
public void
partBroughtToTop(IWorkbenchPart part) {}
public void
partDeactivated(IWorkbenchPart part) {}
public void partOpened(IWorkbenchPart
part) {}
});
}

It seems that when the actual comparison editor comes up (if there are
differences), the IPartListener.partClosed gets fired when the compare
editor is closed. However, if the "No differences ..." dialogue appears
instead, the IPartListener.partClosed method gets run when the workbench
is closed or when the connection to the System i is closed.

HTH,
Adam
