| Summary | 2151: Multi-file targeting | ||||
| Description | Allow opcodes to target multiple-files at once, using wildcards. Currently the engine is working on a file-by-file basis. The right approach may be to do it on a file-by-file basis, and then if multiple files share any particular operation, and those files can be covered via a minimised wildcard that doesn't cover any files where applying the operation would make unwanted changes, to merge the operation into a single file-wildcarded operation. | ||||
| Additional Information | It is easy to imagine cases where string replaces are happening across all files, or *.css, or *.tpl. To make things tractable, we perhaps limit ourselves only to these basic wildcards (i.e. global, or per file-type). I have not assigned this, as I don't think it is important enough for us to consider, and it's a bit complex. | ||||
