Client: Platform Ignore problems
I recently installed a fresh RTC client.
One of the SCM components in our Jazz repository contains .o files
(object files) that are, by default, ignored by the default global
Eclipse platform ignore list.
So, because RTC's .jazzignore feature can't be used to override the
Eclipse platform ignore list, I edited the Platform Ignore List to
remove the *.o reference. All was well, until I restarted the RTC
client. Now, each time RTC starts, it complains by throwing up a dialog
box titled
"Verify Ignore List Change"
The text in the box says
This client has different ignore rules from the last client that
opened this workspace. This may change which resources are shared.
Platform ignore rules changes:
(a list of ignored .o files are shown)
I press cancel, and the RTC client continues without further trouble.
When I look at the Eclipse platform ignore list, *.o is still not
checked (meaning that *.o files shouldn't be ignored) so I'm mystified
as to why this dialog box is presented.
Any help appreciated

You're shown this message because your team ignores have changed between invocations of RTC (the share of the .o files). RTC allows you to cancel this change (preventing the new ignore rule from being used), or accept it, and possibly share/cancel some set of resources.
You should only see this message once. Hitting 'Cancel' once should be enough to prevent the rule change. You should only see the dialog on the first startup. If you see it on multiple startups, and you're using the same Eclipse install that last ran on the workspace, something is wrong.
If you're seeing this repeatedly on the same workspace/install pair, please submit a bug explaining how you removed that pattern.

Yes, the problem is happening repeatedly.
I just unchecked *.o in the Windows->Preferences->Team->Ignored Resources
I've confirmed it occurs on both the RTC supplied Eclipse 3.3 and the
newer Eclipse 3.4
CDT is also present.
I've opened Defect 62876
