Attaching sources to lib takes effect only after restart

Description

« Hide

I clicked on a stack trace element in the console.
Idea opened the decompiled sources for a class in a jar that is configured in a module library.
I opened the module settings, edited the module library, attached sources (multiple folder (no zips)).
Closed the editor with the decompiled stub.

Clicked on the stack trace again.
=> Bug: Idea again opened only the decompiled view.
Took me some trial and error to find out that Idea only notices the sources after a restart.

7118: reproduced with provided scenario. Important notes:
If user attaches sources, re-run application and gets the trace again, then sources are found.
But if the application is not re-run, so, trace is not regenerated, then attaching sources makes no effect.
Probably the trace in IDEA console contains some "hard-coded" URL to file (.java or .class).
Restarting IDEA is not necessary, in fact.

The same with detaching sources: trace opens remembered java file, though it is detached.

Ctrl+B detects attached / detached sources immediately.

Alexander, I don't really understand much of what you said (and probably am not supposed to), but please note that this is a regression.
I am quite confident that this is exactly what I did in Demetra whenever clicking on a stacktrace took me to decompiled stub.

And of course

there should be a really quick fix to attach sources staring at you in the UI whenever a decompiled stub opens
the stub should be replaced automatically with source as soon as the source jar/folder is attached
But those are other issues...

Yes, this is the bug. Just specified more conditions for developer.
