Type Archives should sync types automatically

Open CouleeApps opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

What is the feature you'd like to have? When I make changes to types synced to a Type Archive, I want them to automatically push to the archive (Likely should make this a setting). When one of my attached Type Archives has changes pushed, they should be automatically pulled into my analysis.

Ideally, the workflow should look like:

  1. Attach type archive to analysis a, b
  2. Have the type pulled in analysis a, b
  3. Edit type in a
  4. Type is automatically updated in the archive
  5. Type is automatically updated in b

That way I can just edit types in a and they are automatically updated in b without any extra steps from me.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Using type archives is rather clunky and involves a bunch of extra steps which I always know I want to do, so there's never any decisions to be made.

Are any alternative solutions acceptable? Current behavior is technically functional but rather inconvenient.

Additional Information: Need to discuss how this will work with Enterprise's Remote Type Archive support.
