Should navto search opening projects like find all refs to give better info about world or just existing open projects

Yes VS Code now searches all open projects by default (on TS 3.9+). My understand is that this should only search the already opened project and not trigger a new project loads. You can disable this behavior with typescript.workspaceSymbols.scope .

I made this the default because I felt searching all projects made the most sense for the way we describe go to symbol in workspace. It is useful in the VS Code codebase for example because we usually want search results from both our extensions and our core codebase.

@amcasey VS Code cannot stream in results. We have to return them all in a single response

从 navto 和 workspace-symbol 的讨论开始，包括 TypeScript 3.9+ 的行为以及 typescript.workspaceSymbols.scope 设置。确定预期的默认值应当是在已打开的项目和所有项目之间选择哪一个，然后找到相关的 VS Code 集成入口点和测试；payload 未列出任何文件或测试，因此查找它们也是工作的一部分。
