How to unlock "external source" files?

Hello Benjamin,

I believe ReSharper should not lock the files that are not part of the current
solution. Do I understand correctly that the files are unlocked if ReSharper
is suspended under Tools | Options | ReSharper | General? Thank you!

All the files I open that are not part of my current solution are all
locked. Is there an option in ReSharper to remove that feature?

I'm using ReSharper 5.1 and VS.Net 2008.

Thanks.

I just tried opening a file not in the solution by pressing F12 (by the way I love the fact that ReSharper opens the real file, contrary to VS.Net that would simply open a "fake" file from "metadata" with just the signatures of the members of the class) and it opens the right file, but locked.
Then I tried simply opening another file, locked too.

I then suspended ReSharper and did the same 2 operations: 1st one gives me the metadata, 2nd one opens the file *not* locked.

So indeed it looks like ReSharper locks the files for some reasons (I would like in both cases the files not to be locked).

Thanks Andrey.

Andrey, Benjamin,

Do I understand correctly that by Locked you mean not locked on disk, but
having a Lock icon on the tab and being not able to edit it?

Exactly Ilya, the files are readonly in VS.Net (with a lock icon on the tab), sorry for not being really clear about it.

Also by simply suspending and resuming ReSharper the small lock on the corresponding tabs disappears and reappears (in my previous test I 1st started or resumed ReSharper and only then I opened the files).
