I’d like to be able to mark files as read-only when using them in MyEclipse.

Frequently, I steal code from another project or another file in the same project and would like the IDE to prevent me from modfifying the original. I want the status to be in the IDE so I can turn it on and off as necessary. (Like when I find a problem in the original code….)

Right-click on the file and go to Properties, there is a check box there called “Read-only”.

That marks the FILE so I have to change it back to retain read-write permissions in the file system. I want to mark the BUFFER as I can using XEmacs or other editors.

Yes, that’s how I interpreted your question:

We don’t support marking the buffer separately at this time.

That’s why this is a feature request.
