070419. Until recently, when you opened a source file, its status box was initially green until it was parsed, which was of course wrong. Now it correctly shows the little clock icon, which is fine - but it does not automatically change this icon when parsing finishes. You need to type some character and undo it to force it to update to a color (green/yellow/red). Interestingly, in the case of r/o classes (e.g. JDK sources), you can just type any character - the status line will say the file is r/o, then the parser color will update!
The problem with "parsing" status has the same root cause as issue #100815 (languages/engine creates an UpToDateStatusProvider for Java). There is no "native" up-to-date status provider for Java now. I propose to change the scope of this issue to create a native UtDSP for Java. Re: r/o sources - the editor document is not truly read-only, if a change is made to a "read-only" document, it is automatically "undo-ed".
moving opened issues from TM <= 6.1 to TM=Dev
P4 imo
Will belong to Parsing API.
