Re: [eclipse-incubator-e4-dev] Meeting Notes: E4 Resources Kickoff Meeting
|
Hi Martin,
Thanks for the notes. I wish I were able to attend the actual
meeting...but I was not. After looking over the notes (especially the
Non-Local Resources section) I have one comment.
One approach that we've (ECF) found useful for dealing Remote Resources
is 'smart replication'. Frequently, distribution is done in an 'all or
nothing' manner...i.e. none of the actual data are actively replicated
(e.g. proxies, remote file systems), or all of it is (e.g.
CVS/scc)...and the application has no say about when/how data are
replicated. But with an extensible workspace/resources model, it would
be possible to have resource-specific caching/replication strategies
which are sensitive to the environment they run in, and sensitive to
what the application's access patterns are...and can/could do active
replication as needed/appropriate at runtime.
ECF has a 'replicated object API' to support such a notion (objects that
can implement replication strategies). This API is one of the container
adapter apis that are accessible off of IContainer (connection). For
reference: http://wiki.eclipse.org/ECF_API_Docs#Shared_Object_API
Hope this is of use.
Thanks,
Scott

Please check whether I got everything right - Szymon, I can't quite
remember
what you said in terms of background and interest. As always, feel free
to edit or discuss here on the list (I'm watching the Wiki Notes).
Next meeting is in 2 weeks:
