RE: [cdt-dev] Major PDOM changes in HEAD
|
Let's try to figure out whether we are talking about the same thing.
What I
like to have is:
(1) create an index for several projects on some machine.
(2) use the offline-index(es) in multiple workspaces.
(3) once you have the offline-index you still want to locally index
those
files that have been changed locally in the workspace.
To make (1) and (2) happen it is helpful to work on a per-project basis,
as
every workspace can contain a different set of projects. It's hard to
make assumptions on what projects are finally combined in an arbitrary
workspace,
I'd like to avoid the assumption that the offline-indexes for all
projects have to come from the same machine/location.
In our commercial product we store the offline-indices in the project
with the
source-code and share them via the same mechanisms as the source-code
(i.e. an
arbitrary SCM-Tool). This could be an approach that we can follow in
CDT. Can you share your idea of pushing the offline-index to other
workspaces?
Solving (3) is a little bit harder and I defer discussing this until I
have
understood your ideas on (1) and (2).
