> I vaguely thought about some "Environment"-like strategy pluggable into Loaders or > Filesystems that would define strategy for files/dobjs synchronization. There is a clash between _global_/_environment_-like solution and _local_ solution. Only `DataEditorSupport` knows what it wants exactly to do when a file is changed. That's the _local_ knowledge. I am afraid you'd need many pluggable strategies for each individual case. The best way to implement the _global_/_environment_ solution is to replace current implementation of FileSystem (e.g. `masterfs`) with another one that would be tighter integrated with VSCode workspaces concept. > strategy for files/dobjs The important difference between `FileObject` and `DataObject` in this case is __identity__. When a `FileObject` is moved or renamed, it changes identity. Moving or renaming `DataObject` keeps the identity. To match VSCode/NetBeans concepts when renaming an open and modified editor, it would be desirable to keep `DataObject`'s identity - that's not the case right now. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
