Hi, i would to provide cancellation of long-running XMIResource save
operation.

I noticed this discussion :
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.tools.emf/msg1 2862.html

But it isn't very clear to me.
Is progress monitoring supported (as indicated in the javadoc) and if
yes, what is the procedure to pass the IProgressMonitor to the save method ?

Thanks !

PS : Sorry for bad english.

Romain,

There is currently no support for progress monitoring of load or save.
XSDResourceImpl supports it for load so you could look at that example,
but I'm not sure what canceling save would mean: given that the document
could be partly written out to the file system it sounds like perhaps a
very bad thing to do.

Hi Ed,

If the user cancels the save operation, i would have deleted the
partially written file of course :)

Thanks for your response.

Romain,

And you'd have the restore the original contents or write to a temporary
file that you rename. If multiple resources are involved, you'd want to
restore them all. You really have resources that are so big that
clients might change their mind part way during saving them? It's hard
to imagine...

Well, that's just a "bonus" feature :-D but as the user can cancel the
process during model creation, it would be logic to be able to cancel
the serialization (usually 500 MB models or more, which can take several
minutes : i use the XMLResource.OPTION_FLUSH_THRESHOLD &
XMLResource.OPTION_USE_FILE_BUFFER options).

Well, after reflexion, I already handle cancellation during model
creation, we can consider that the user had time to change his mind
before serialization.

Thanks.
