Description

using redhat java plugin adds files and settings into

.config/Code - OSS/User/workspaceStorage/22dc90a0216b40526a440f21fc5cdf72/redhat.java/ss_ws
.config/Code - OSS/User/workspaceStorage/22dc90a0216b40526a440f21fc5cdf72/redhat.java/jdt_ws

without a human clicking any settings. if the plugin generates it automatic it would be nice to not save it at all, or put it into cache in case it slows down the plutin otherwise.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Red Hat Java plugin behavior under .config/Code - OSS/User/workspaceStorage/.../redhat.java/, focusing on the generated ss_ws and jdt_ws files. Trace where these workspace files are created or persisted; done means automatically generated data is not stored as user configuration, or is placed in an appropriate cache instead.
