Stephen Rees-Carter (valorin) wrote : Eclipse writes empty files over gvfs

I use Eclipse IDE (Zend Studio to be exact) for editing code on my development servers.

Because we have internal development servers, I connect to them via SSH and use the .gvfs folder in my home directory to access the files through Eclipse.
I.e: /home/s.rees/.gvfs/sftp for s.rees on internal.dev/var/www

Before upgrading to 10.10 Maverick I was fine reading and writing the files, but now any time it goes to save a file I get an empty file as a result. Making it impossible to do any work...

I don't know if this is a bug or a wacky feature (that can be disabled?)...
