IsDirty or IsDocDataDirty calls?

I am seeing a large number of calls to IPersistFileFormat.IsDirty(..) and/or IVsPersistDocData.IsDocDataDirty(..) which I believe are made by the Jazz Source Control plugin. There is no VS IDE activity at the time, I simply start VS and open a solution that is shared with RTC. A short while later I see a spate of calls (I suspect that these would recurr if I continued to watch)

Can anyone tell me what would be the reason for VS or the RTC plugin to query the dirty state of versioned files?

Thanks
Steve

RTC does not make calls to either unless you have an artifact open in a native editor - a work item, build result or workspace or stream.

I'm wondering if VS makes these calls on shared files to figure out the share status (say unresolved) - though I can't imagine why it would need to look at the dirty bit to do that.

Another possibility is that it calls this method while getting the properties of a shared file. Could you try closing the Properties View and see if this is still happening?
