How to Implement TreeFileChooserDialog in Remote Mode for Client Plugin
Planned
I'm developing a plugin for IntelliJ IDEA running in remote mode, where the client communicates with a remote host for data. I attempted to implement a file selection feature using TreeFileChooserFactory
on the client side, but it fails to properly search and display files in the dialog.
Here are my questions:
- Since
TreeFileChooserFactory
doesn't seem to support file searching in the remote client environment, are there known limitations or alternative methods for file searching with a tree structure in remote mode? - Should I approach this using a different mechanism to ensure files are properly searched and displayed on the client side?
- Is there any guidance or best practices for ensuring host-client communication works effectively for file-related dialogs in remote development?
Thank you for your help!
