(66/308) 554 - Templates plugin creates spurious Action objects

In order to run template instances from macros, the
Templates plugin creates an Action instance for each
template. These Action instances are created while
setting up the plugin's menu items, and are bundled
into ActionSet objects with each submenu in the
Templates plugin menu hierarchy having its own ActionSet.

When the "Refresh Templates" item is selected from the
Templates menu, these Action objects get re-created.
Unfortunately, the old ActionSets are not being
removed. As a result, the user sees items labelled "<no
label set; plugin bug>" in the drop-down list under
Utilities->Global Options->Shortcuts. Each time the
"Refresh Templates" item is selected, the list of such
items grows.

The menu/Action creation process needs to be modified
to ensure that old template Action objects are removed
before the new ones are created.

2006-10-12 15:41:32 sjakob	Logged In: YES user_id=17432 By passing a String to the ActionSet constructor (SVN commit #7502) I was able to give the Templates ActionSets proper labels, rather than "<no label set; plugin bug>". Two problems remain, though: 1) The old ActionSets need to be removed when the template list is refreshed. 2) The Templates ActionSets don't show up in the Shortcuts pane following jEdit startup. After selecting "Refresh Templates" they do show up, and each subsequent refresh adds a new set of ActionSets.

I want to take back my last question :-) and only say: Directly after jEdit start there are exactly 8 actions visible in the shortcuts pane. This does NOT change after one or more "Refresh Templates" for me. The actions are: templates-tree : Templates Tree templates-tree-float : Templates Tree (New Floating Instance) templates-tree-toggle : Toggle Templates Tree Templates.browse-templates : Browse Templates Templates.edit-template : Edit template Templates.expand-accelerator : Expand Accelerator Templates.refresh-templates : Refresh templates Templates.save-template : Save template
