Connecting to CVS Repository [message #250332]

The goal is to build an Eclipse Plug-in that connects to the CVS Repository
and associates file authorship to a normal call graph.

I found another plug-in, CVSGrapher
( http://www.bonevich.com/boneclipse-master/boneclipse-cvsgrap her/), that
does something similar in connecting to a CVS repository and connecting
authorship to revisions.

After running the CVSGrapher plug-in and looking at the source code, it
seemed like the following was how it did it but I could not be sure: (in a
much shortened form) This is from the CvsGraphEditor.java file.

import org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.resources.CVSWorkspaceRo ot;

IResource resource = (IResource)
getEditorInput().getAdapter(IResource.class);
if (resource instanceof IFile)
{
IFile file = (IFile) resource;
if (teamProvider != null)
{
try
{ _remoteFile = (ICVSRemoteFile)CVSWorkspaceRoot.getRemoteResourceFor(file);
....// close try, etc.

private ILogEntry[] _entries = _remoteFile.getLogEntries(monitor);

And from there it gets converted it into an Arrary of log entries from which
it is possible to call entries.getAuthor(); on each of them or whatever data
you wanted to pull (I think?) ...

If there is a more simple, straight-forward way to

1) connect to a CVS repository
and
2) get the file authorship information for all/each of the files

I would really appreciate knowing. Thank you very much.

ICVSFile cvsFile = CVSWorkspaceRoot.getCVSFileFor((IFile)file);
ILogEntry[] entries = file.getLogEntries(monitor);

ILogEntry[] provides everything you need! It provides the cvs log infos.
What do you mean with "connect to a repository"? If you work on local
resources which are shared they already have cvs sync infos and you can
get everything you need with various operations of ICVSFile or other
remote handles.

Thanks for the help Jens!

About the 1) connect to a CVS repository I guess I meant somehow
communicating with it to have it send you the logentries. If I need more
help I'll be sure to let you know. I'll try to play around with the
ILogEntry[] to see if I can get it to work.

I think what he wants to do is work with resources that are not local. Like
connect to a cvs repository, and scan the files in that cvs repository
remotely and gather the information that way. Sorta like eclipse does all
this behind the scenes. Can that work?

Looking at the CVSGrapher code, it seems that the ILogEntry[] gives the
history/cvs log infos for a single file?

However, how would I go about trying to get the history/cvs log infos for an
entire project (every file inside the project)? Would this require getting
the directory structure of the folder and somehow making a loop and till I
get all the individual log files saved? Or does ILogEntryp[]/ICVSFile and
CVSWorkspaceRoot allow for something like
getCVSProjectFor((IProject)project);?

Thanks for the pointers.

No, you need to traverse every single file.

You could fetch all the log info for a project using the Log or RLog
commands directly. Have a look at the RemoteLogOperation in the CVS UI
plugin (org.eclipse.team.cvs.ui). This operation uses the RLog command
to fetch, in a single command, the comments that are displayed in the
synchronize view when using the Commit Sets layout.
