| Re: [ecf-dev]  org.eclipse.ecf.presence.IFQID | 
Hi Eugen,
Thanks for the nice words.  I'm very glad to get everything 
going...xmpp's handling of resources (and therefore XMPP ids) is more 
complicated than I expected.
I would like to arrange to speak with you after the holiday weekend 
(i.e. next week) to discuss some things with you...including the ideas 
below and remote mgmt/your rcp work.
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,
I've checked your bug fixes for the IFQID today and it works perfect! 
You've done a great job on this, thanks a lot, I really appreciate it!!!

Hi Scott,
I'm thinking of a new use case where all user resources are grouped 
to an e.g. 'IResourceGroup' object rather than displaying all 
user/resource-objects at the same level. To be more precise if a 
user connects to a server several times (with different resources) 
this user or the resource could be assigned to an IResourceGroup 
which will be used in a tree as a node (similar to the use case 
where users are assigned to groups).
Could this potentially use the platform resource API?  i.e. The 
resource API has IFolder and IProject (with super interface 
IContainer...not the ECF IContainer but the 
org.eclipse.core.resources.IContainer).
I rather meant the resources we've added to the XMPP-IDs. By now all 
users are displayed at the same level in a group (within the roster 
tree in a GUI). But if a user logs in several times it might be 
useful to group this user/resource pairs in a new node. This could be 
done by using something like an IResourceGroup.
I've also received the updates regarding "multiple users after log in 
and log out". I will test these changes by the end of the week and 
give you some feedback. Thanks for this update and your work!
Cheers,
Eugen

Hi Eugen,
Sorry about the delayed response.  I was at ESE and I sort of lost 
track of this posting.  My apologies.

Do you think this is important enough to become part of ECF or 
should I handle this just within my project?
The whole interaction between ECF/distribution and the Eclipse local 
resources system (and EFS) is extremely important for ECF as a 
whole.  There are several enhancement requests that are related to 
this issue...e.g.:  
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=239048.  Note that 
using ECF would allow several/many existing UIs to work 
unmodified...e.g. navigator, wtp project browser, etc.
In short, we need to figure out how to replicate multiple resources 
into the workspace...for shared editing, but also for lots of other 
things (e.g. folders and recursive contents, projects, whole 
workspaces potentially).   There are some very tricky questions, IMHO:
1) Should we try to use EFS to provide transparent access to 
replicated workspace contents?
2) When should we do the replication? 3) How should we decide how 
much to replicate...or leave to user (e.g. projects, folders, 
individual resources, what's is shared via repository).
4) How/what should we do WRT source code repositories? (e.g. SVN, 
CVS, others).  That is, how should we deal with cases like:  repo 
has one content, shared editing initiator has some other version, 
and the receiver(s) have yet a third version/or nth version?
5) How to keep local caches of resources consistent enough for use 
cases?
I'm quite sure there are very good answers to all these questions, 
given some use cases, and I do think that now ECF has the tools 
(e.g. with remote services, datashare, etc) to address these 
issues.  But I wanted to get them out there for everyone to consider.
So to summarize, I do think that your area of work here (i.e. 
relationship to local and distributed resources) is important enough 
to be directly related to ECF...and it would be great if we could 
have ECF community benefit from such work.
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,
obviously I'm not the only one who's working on sunday :) I've 
tried your new solution with the IFQID and it looks great!!! I 
will have a deep look at it during the week and check out whether 
the remote services are working properly with user/resource 
pairs, but my first impression is that it works pretty good. 
Thanks Scott!
No problem.  Just keep those use cases coming.  Also Eugen...I 
need to hook up with you directly about work I've been doing on 
remote mgmt...using p2 and ECF remote services.  If you are 
available please let me know directly when we could chat via 
Skype, etc.
You should not have to specify this property any longer:
props.put(Constants.SERVICE_REGISTRATION_TARGETS, targetIDs);
What is the right way to register remote services, just provide 
empty Dictionary<?> parameters?
Yes.  Now that the 'on-demand' access to IRemoteServices is 
available (via getRemoteServiceReferences), it should be 
unnecessary to actually specify service registration targets on 
the service host as per above.
Thanks,
Scott
