Hi, Nyall, I'm developing a plugin with a lot of internal layers, that are being (re)created on user interaction.
There are multiple event listeners attached to a layer, as well as passed around to different functions and might have custom styles. At some point, I want to replace the layer entirely with another one (result from an algorithm). To solve this, I came up with three solutions, maybe there are more: One option to achieve this is to copy all the features from the new layer and put them in the first one, but the layers might be very big and I'm afraid it would be a problem. The second option that I'm currently using is to recreate all the event listeners on the new layer and replace it from the layer tree. This is okayish and it works. The third option is to set a new data source, as I thought it's the most optimal one, however, when the layer has two uids it's practically broken. I got some inspiration from here: https://github.com/enricofer/changeDataSource/blob/master/setdatasource.py#L175-L206 directly editing the XML but the result is the same - double ids. I checked this plugin because I'm sure it used to work in 3.2 (currently having 3.6.3 on Ubuntu).
