Re: [platform-vcm-dev] Using merge functionality from CVS
|
Check out the org.eclipse.compare plug-in. It contains the entire compare
framework that we (CVS) use to create our UI. You can use it in the same
way that CVS does. There is a compare mailing list, but this sounds like a
topic for the newsgroup. If you want to see how we do it, check out as
starting points the following classes in the Team and CVS UI plug-ins:
SyncView
*CompareEditorInput
and the actions (SyncAction, Compare*Action, etc).
and the model elements (TeamFile, ChangedTeamContainer,
UnchangedTeamContainer, etc).
You'll want to do something similar to what these do.
If you have any questions about how they work, feel free to post a note to
the newsgroup.

Subject: [platform-vcm-dev] Using merge functionality from CVS
I am curious how easy or difficult it would be to utilize or extend CVS's
merging capabilities for our own use (I know it has a merge wizard to
merge resources/projects). Basically, the goal is to take two files and
compare and/or merge them together (or three files for a three-way merge).
How feasible is this with the way the CVS plugins are currently written?
The interest is more in the underlying functionality, rather than in
extending/using the wizard(s). Is the diff/merge functionality accessible?
