Subject: [cdt-dev] PDOM Index updates

 

Hello,

I have some of query regarding PDOM index

1. How often does PDOM updates its index db/ how does the index get updated ?

[Doug>] This is what the indexer does.

2. Does it listen to CElementDelta ?

[Doug>] Yes. Check out the PDOMManager class, elementChanged method. It generally only indexes when ITranslationUnits change.

3. Is there a method/way to update pdom index (not rebuild index) on demand? if so how ?

[Doug>] I guess you could. Make sure you acquire the write lock on the PDOM you are writing to first. Again, check out the implementation of the indexers to see how.

Thanks and Regards,
Janees
