When implementing a plugin, I can determine the source reference of a Step Definition (using handler on Envelope.stepDefinition), but I cannot determine the source reference for a ParameterType.
The cause is CachingGlue.emitParameterTypeDefined which creates an Envelope with a ParameterType which miss the source reference information.
🤔 What's the problem you're trying to solve?

A simple solution would be to:
SourceReferencein theio.cucumber.messages.types.ParameterType. Hint: requires changing the cucumber messages schema (https://github.com/cucumber/messages/tree/main/jsonschema) which generates classes for Java and other languages, see https://github.com/cucumber/messages/issues/145. A snapshot version of the library should be made.ParameterTypesource reference when theEnvelope.parameterType"event" is sent to the event bus, see https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-jvm/issues/2719 for the corresponding Java feature.⛏ Have you considered any alternatives or workarounds?
