[ jEdit-devel ] IO Threads

[Marcelo V. <mar...@po...>]

	Hey Slava,

	I noticed something when loading large projects during start up in 
ProjectViewer. I'm using a jEdit IO thread to do the loading, and it 
seems that no buffers are loaded until the PV IO request is finished.

	You can reproduce that by having a project with many files, specially 
over a network file system. If you have jEdit set up to load the buffers 
from the previous session, and the PV dockable is opened at start up, 
the buffers will not load until after the project is loaded.

	Am I doing something wrong here? I thought the idea of having IO 
threads was to work around this kind of situation...

	The code I use to add a work request to the thread pool is:
	VFSManager.getIOThreadPool().addWorkRequest(this, false);

	(In class "ProjectLoader" in "ProjectViewer.java".)
