RE: [dsdp-tm-dev] TM conf. call - notes for 7-Jun-2006

Hi Michael,
 
EFS is being used for resources on the local file system, but problems start to get visible when the actual filesystems are remote or in some other way "non standard".
 
There are UI problems in the wizards where the actual resource for a project is selected.
On the tools side (CDT, ...) basic project creation is supported, but problems are found when it comes to operations on the files (index generation, classpath, build, ...)
 
Unable to specify resources in zip filesystem
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=137879
 
[EFS] FileSystemContributor API has insuffecient information
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=134270
 
EFS FTP Error
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=137878
 
CDT EFS Support
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=142092
 
EFS Zip File System Example "Collapse Zip File" Error
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=138277
 
Most of these bug reports do have patches attached, but they have not been merged in for Eclipse 3.2 / Callisto. Bottom line of this is, that with Eclipse 3.2 EFS is not yet ready for product usage, its still in experimental phase. Therefore we decided that for RSE we can also keep it in experimental phase for our release.
 
We are happy to provide our example EFS implementation as a testbed for developers to experiment with EFS on ssh / sftp or dstore remote connections, and in fact I think we are going to advertise this with our next milestone. But we are not going to make EFS support a release plan item.

Cheers,
Martin

Martin,

In your meeting notes, you mention EFS bugs that are preventing you from adopting EFS. Do you have bug numbers for these? As far as I am aware, there are no major issues with EFS and it is being used as the file system for all projects in your workspace. Also, my understanding is that JDT has been migrated to EFS as well. I am not aware of any work in CDT in this area though.

If you encounter bugs in EFS, please report then the the Eclipse/Platform/Resources component. If it is more of an issue of the suitability of EFS for use in your particular scenarios, you may want to open a discussion of the API in relation to your requriements on the platform-core-dev mailing list.

Michael
