SourceUriBug README

This is a POC project to demonstrate the issue with file renaming in VS Code - namely 1) After a file has been renamed by a user, the VS Code APIs return the stale name, and 2) the sourceUri passed when invoked via the explorer is different from the sourceUri that's passed when invoked via a contextual menu in a document.

This is a boilerplate VS Code extension, with the following events added:

• example.tree.node.command
• example.editor.command

Both of these commands call exampleCommand() in extension.ts.

To reproduce the bug:

1. Run VS Code with this extension
2. Open a project
3. In the explorer, right-click on a file and select Rename.
4. Rename the file's name. Only change the case of some of the characters, don't add or remove characters. (eg. rename homepage.html to homePage.html)
5. In the explorer, right-click the same file and select Example Tree Node Command

Result: When debugging, you should break into exampleCommand(). Observe the sourceUri that's passed in, and notice that the paths in sourceUri are to homePage.html, which is expected.

6. If not already opened, open the file that was renamed (eg homePage.html)
7. Right-click within the editor and select Example Editor Command

Result: When debugging, you should break into exampleCommand(). Observe the sourceUri that's passed in, and notice that the paths in sourceUri are incorrect, and are the stale/original homepage.html.

There are two bugs here:

1. After a file has been renamed by a user, the VS Code APIs return the stale name
2. The sourceUri passed when invoked via the explorer is a different from the sourceUri that's passed when invoked via a contextual menu in a document.
