Re: [platform-vcm-dev] getting started with sync view

Jan,

There is currently no documentation for the sync view. The CVS
implementation is very complicated so I'm not suprised that you are having
trouble deciphering it. The target support (WebDAV, FTP) also makes use of
the sync view but is not as complicated as CVS. You may want to have a look
at that. (FTP and WebDAV are available as a separate download from any of
the Eclipse drops pages). A good starting point for this is the
TargetSyncCompareInput and RemoteTargetSyncElement classes. If you have
specific questions as you look through these classes, feel free to post
them here and I'll try to respond to them as quickly as possible.

I realize that the base code for the Synchronization View is not officially
an "API" in its current state. However, we are getting a lot of requests
for this functionality from our customers, and would like to take a stab at
implementing a Synchronization View of our own based on the internal sync
packages.

I have to admit that we are having a little trouble getting started with
this, though. Is there any documentation out there on how a repository
provider should use the sync classes/interfaces as they exist now, or at
least how CVS makes use of them? Lacking that, any hints to get us started
would be *extremely* helpful.

Thanks!
