Re: [eclipse-dev] Sharable tasks
|
The task support comes from JDT/Core (mailing list
jdt-core-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx). The task tags are persisted locally into user
preferences, which can be exported/imported back as normal preferences.
Note though that it only consider global preferences, not project level
ones (which JDT supports).
We could issue a project preference files for sharing purpose, but were
reluctant to do so so as to avoid cluttering the project folder with tons
of little metafiles (.project, .classpath, ..., .preferences ?). Merging
them into one larger file is nasty in the sense that merge operations are
becoming quite complex.

Please respond to
eclipse-dev
Hi all,
don't know what is the best mailing list to ask for this, so please
direct me to the right place if this does not belongs here.
Would it be possible to make user defined tasks, those not automatically
generated via TODO or FIXME or other tags inside java sources, sharable
to other people working on the same project?
What i'm thinking about is a sort of "export/import" function to allow
exporting selected task to an xml file that can be imported by others.
Or best, having a task creation attribute like "sharable" that, when
select, writes the task definition, instead of the usual .markers file,
in an XML file (or in the .project file itself?), automatically
recognized by eclipse, that can be imported in CVS to become part of the
shared project.
This would be useful for propagating to others info on ongoing tasks on
resources not managed by java compiler, or generic tasks not belonging
to a specific resource.
Regards, Gabriele
