Description William Chen CLA 2012-01-13 00:23:51 EST 
In Target Explorer view, a global refresh for the whole tree is missing.

Hi William,

the original thinking had been around a refresh action in the context menu for the "File System" and "Processes" nodes in the tree if I had spoken from a "whole tree" refresh. Sorry if that had not been clear enough.

Nevermind. The request for a global refresh is nonetheless valid to, but needs more consideration.

- If adding a toolbar action and providing a common "Refresh" contribution for the context menu, we need a kind of "IRefreshDelegate" adapter for the selection.
- In case of having no selection in the tree, the toolbar action is "refresh everything". How to delegate the refresh request to the single content contributions?

Did you mean a refresh action added to the root of the file system and the process list to refresh the whole tree of the file system and the process list respectively in Target Explorer? If that's what you want, I'll change the summary and the description of this bug.

I just got confirmation from Uwe Stieber that he means to add refresh actions for the roots of the file system and the process list in Target Explorer view. Now there are refresh actions for each directory nodes in Target Explorer. But there's no refresh action for the whole file system tree. Such an action should be added to the root of the file system to refresh the whole file system tree in Target Explorer. This is also the same case for the process list, i.e., a refresh action for the root of the process list is missing.

So I revised the summary for this bug as well as the above description.
