Feature Request: Support for Classpath Configuration per Module
Summary
The Read Heat extension currently supports only a single workpsace classpath configuration. This becomes limiting in multi‑module Java projects, where each module may require a different classpath. I would like to propose extending the configuration model to align with the standard VS Code configuration hierarchy: User → Workspace → Module (new).
Problem Description
In complex Java workspaces, especially those containing multiple independent modules, the extension does not allow defining a classpath per module. As a result:
- All modules must share the same classpath, even when they have different dependency sets.
- Workspace‑level configuration cannot be overridden for specific modules.
- The extension becomes difficult to use in real‑world multi‑module setups.
For example, I may have a workspace configured on User level for JDK 21, but a specific workpsace require JDK 1.8 and each module requires a different classpath or additional libraries. Currently, there is no way to express this.
Proposed Solution
Introduce a hierarchical configuration model consistent with VS Code’s philosophy:
- User-level configuration
Global defaults for all workspaces. - Workspace-level configuration
Overrides user settings for the current workspace. - Module-level configuration
A new level of configuration that applies to a specific Java module and can override both workspace and user settings.
This would allow each module to define its own classpath while still inheriting defaults when appropriate.
Expected Behavior
- If a module defines its own classpath, the extension uses that configuration.
- If not, the workspace configuration is used.
- If neither module nor workspace defines a classpath, the user-level configuration applies.
- This mirrors how VS Code handles settings for other languages and extensions.
Benefits
- Better support for multi-module Java projects.
- Cleaner and more maintainable configuration.
- Behavior consistent with VS Code’s established configuration hierarchy.
- Allows mixed JDK environments or module-specific dependency sets.

Rechercherichtung
Das Issue nennt keine Konfigurationsdateien, Tests oder Einstiegspunkte der Implementierung. Beginne damit, die Handhabung der VS Code-Konfigurationserweiterung sowie die vorhandenen Workspace-/Classpath-Einstellungen zu finden, und bestimme dann, wie Überschreibungen auf Modulebene in das aktuelle Modell passen würden. Als abgeschlossen sollte die Änderung modulspezifische Classpaths mit Workspace- und User-Fallback-Verhalten sowie Tests für die Vorrangregeln umfassen.
