Programatically synchronizing externally modified CVS Team resources [message #292807]

Gurus,

We are attempting to customize the CVS Team functionality within Eclipse
to conform to our (relatively complex) build rules. I have successfully
written a plug-in in SWT (for 3.0) which commits, tags and updates our
build database within Eclipse.

All is working well, except... Eclipse is showing an indicator that the
resource is out of sync. This goes away if I manually select
Team->Replace With for the resource(s) in question. However, having to do
this extra step is at odds with our goal of one-click build submissions.

I have tried just about every method in
org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.resources.EclipseSyncron izer. I also
attempted to have my plug-in extend WorkspaceModifyOperation. These
methods did not work.

Is there any way that I can either: clear Eclipse's internal cache for
that resource's modification and/or trigger a slient update of the
resource from CVS to refresh the internal cache?

My thanks in advance,

Saish

There is an UpdateOperation in the CVS UI plugin which you can use to
perform an update.

Dear Michael,

Thank you very much for the prompt response. I had one worry, however.
That class, if I am not mistaken, is in the 'internal' package. Do these
classes change frequently between releases? Our development group
regularly upgrades their Eclipse IDE's.

Many thanks,
Saish

I think that depends on other dependencies that u might have
used/imported.I got this tip from one of the newsgroup members...paul
webster

To find stuff like this go to the plugin view, select all of the plugins,
and add them to the java search.

Then all of the classes will appear in CTRL+SHIFT+T and it shows what
plugin the class came from.

Saish,

The CVS plugin has no official API but many do use it. It doesn't change
frequently but, unlike official API, it can. If that is a problem for
you than the answer to your first question is that there is no supported
way to customize CVS Team functionality in Eclipse.

I assumed you had already used non-API to perform the commit, tag and
update. Did you use the command like client for this? That may explain
the change indicators as described in bug
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=15133.
