When Does Changeset Automatically get Work Item Associated?
I'm confused was to when a changeset automatically gets a work item associated with it.
I have two users with different Eclipse workspaces. Both have a "current" work item ("Start working..."), as shown by the work item being listed in the bottom-left part of the screen.
However, with one when I change code, the work item does not automatically get associated - it still says "<Enter>." With the other user, the "<Enter> is replaced by the currently-active work item.
Any help appreciated - thanks.

One answer
The Eclipse UI will frequently fail to associate a new change-set with
the declared current work item. There is a work item to get that fixed
.... there is a school of thought that argues it sometimes shouldn't (as
you can guess, I disagree with that school of thought :-).
For folks that are encountering this situation, please feel free to
submit a work item with the details of when you encountered this, or
comment on the existing work item (I'll post the work item ID once the
jazz.net maintenance is completed).
