Re: [orion-dev] mapping client-side file locations to server file system

[Anthony Hunter <anthonyh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rafael,

Best place would be to look at the design
document for the feature delivered in Orion 4.0, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=412995#c20
. In this document there is a mapping from the old to new.

However, you should be using the workspace
API to get these locations, this has not changed, the documentation is
at http://wiki.eclipse.org/Orion/Server_API/Workspace_API


You get the workspace for the user,
from that you can get the projects and their locations.

Cheers...
Anthony

mapping client-side file locations to server file      
 system locations

I have some code that maps the location as seen by
the Orion client to the path of the file under the Orion server workspace.

It seems for Orion 5.0 file locations changed again, to
something such as:

/file/myuser-OrionContent/top-folder/subfolder/file.txt

whereas in 4.0 I believe it used to be:

/file/myuser/top-folder/subfolder/file.txt 

And of course that broke my mapping hack.

I can change my hack to strip the -OrionContent substring,
but it would be good to have an idea of where things are going and if it
is worth doing that (or will it break again in 6.0). Is there a (supported)
direction on how tools can map client-side locations to server-side content
locations?

Cheers,

Rafael _______________________________________________
