VersionVault label decorations and resource states

Label decorations indicate the state of a resource in an HCL VersionVault view.

Label decorations allow additional information to be displayed in an item's label and icon. In the VersionVault Navigator, the VersionVault Details view, and other viewers in the VersionVault perspective, you can configure label decorations that indicate the state of each resource in a VersionVault view. In the Eclipse environment, these decorations are also visible in any Eclipse view that displays the resource. The VersionVault Search Results view and VersionVault Details view also include a column that shows resource states by name.
