Description

##[provide a description of the issue]

Environment
  • Operating System: 10.12.2
  • JDK version: jdk1.8.0_121
  • Visual Studio Code version: 1.9.1
  • Java extension version: 0.0.10
Steps To Reproduce
  1. Rename a file and folder of package
    In my case it was
    android/app/src/main/java/za/co/io/reactnativekeystore/KeystoreModule.java android/app/src/main/java/za/co/io/reactnativekeystore/KeystorePackage.java
    and I renamed them to
    android/app/src/main/java/za/co/io/reactnativecrypto/CryptoModule.java android/app/src/main/java/za/co/io/reactnativecrypto/CryptoPackage.java
  2. Restart VSCode
  3. Language server fails to start throwing FileNotFoundException

Purging ~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/workspaceStorage and restarting VSCode solved the problem

Research direction

Reproduce the failure by renaming the Java files and package from android/app/src/main/java/za/co/io/reactnativekeystore to reactnativecrypto, then restarting VS Code. Inspect how the extension or language server handles renamed workspace files and stored workspace state; done means the server starts after the rename without requiring workspaceStorage to be purged.
