hi,

I have found a way to retrieve the history of a given IFile when its
project is connected to a VCS repository through code as :

<snip>
final IProject project = file.getProject();
final RepositoryProvider provider = RepositoryProvider.getProvider(project);
final IFileHistoryProvider historyProvider =
provider.getFileHistoryProvider();
final IFileHistory history = historyProvider.getFileHistoryFor(target,
IFileHistoryProvider.NONE, new NullProgressMonitor());
</snip>

Though try as I might, I cannot find any API way of retrieving the same
information when the project is _not_ connected to a repository. All I
found was something like

<snip>
final FileSystemManager fsm =
((org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.Workspace)workspace).g etFileSystemManager();
final HistoryStore = fsm.getStates(file.getFullPath(), new
NullProgressMonitor());
</snip>

Which leads to a fair amount of discouraged access warnings. Isn't there
any open API I'd have missed while digging through the code?

Thanks

Sorry, went a little overboard on that one ... my IFile was not an IFile
(IResource :p) and I was too confident in the code completion.

Hi Laurent,

I am trying to retrieve the latest file in the local history. Did you get
it to work without accessing the internal API so that you do not get the
discourage access warnings?

I have something like:
FileSystemResourceManager fsm =
((org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.Workspace)PlusUIPlugin .getWorkspace()).getFileSystemManager();
IFileState[] fileStates =
fsm.getHistoryStore().getStates(myFile.getFullPath(),null);
InputStream is = fileStates[0].getContents(); //these are the contents I
want of the last file.

Thanks,

Zeus
