when composer.json is changed,and save is attempted, it has to be refreshed by clicking on another view, then it accepts that the file is unsaved and then saves it, otherwise, the save operation is not effected.
This is certainly not a bug for Platform/IDE, to identify the correct product: - Which Eclipse package are you using? - Which Editor are you using? - Is composer.json a special file, or just a regular json?
(In reply to Rolf Theunissen from comment #1) I can reproduce this problem, so I'll be available to help debug. > - Which Eclipse package are you using? > - Which Editor are you using? Eclipse IDE for PHP Developers (includes Incubating components) Version: 2021-03 (4.19.0) Build id: 20210312-0638 Installed using the Eclipse installer downloaded from eclipse.org > - Is composer.json a special file, or just a regular json? I'm not sure what a special file is. Well, it has lots of tabs such as "Overview", "Dependencies", "Autoload" and "composer.json"; so it must be a special file. Should this be reported to PDT?
Pressing Shift-Alt-F1 with the editor selected should give you an popup with information. That would show which editor you are using exactly. I expect that the JSON editor in the PHP package is provided by the Wild Web Developer project. If so, can you open an issue report there and add a reference to that report here? Then we can close this one.
