Re: [platform-vcm-dev] Phantom Resources
|
Just to highlight something:
Calling IResource.members( true /* include phantoms */) returns phantom
resources that another plugin may of created. You can't assume ownership
of non-existing IResources until you check the sync info assigned to them.
Cheers,
Jean-Michel

Re: [platform-vcm-dev] Phantom Resources
Patrick,
Just to add to John's message, the core synchronizer
(org.eclipse.core.resources.ISynchronizer) allows non-local (or remote)
synchronization information to be associated with a resource. Resources
that have do not exist locally and have syncronization information
associated with them will be returned by invoking IContainer#members(true
/* include phantoms*/). However, be warned that there is no general UI in
Eclipse that makes use of phantoms. In other words, there is no way to
create a non-local resource and have it appear in the Resource Navigator
view or the Java Packages view. The Team team is in the process of
creating a generic sychronization view that supports synchronization
between the local workspace and a remote storage location (e.g.
repository). I can't say whether this will help you or not without knowing
more about why you are looking into non-local resources (I suspect you may
have been thrown off by the mention of "non-local" in the IResource API.
Although it is part of the API, non-localness of an IResource is not
currently supported).

Subject: Re: [platform-vcm-dev] Phantom Resources
Phantoms appear and disappear implicitly as a result of sync info being
added to or removed from a resource. There is no way to explicitly create
them other than adding sync info to them. See
org.eclipse.core.resources.ISynchronizer#setSyncInfo for more details.

Subject: [platform-vcm-dev] Phantom Resources
I would like to be able to add a set of phantom resources to my project
representing objects that are not local to the file system, but for which
I am prepared to retrieve the content stream from a repository. The
mechanism for adding these resources is a bit of a mystery. The Workspace
class has a createResource method that appears to do this, but this method
does not exist in the public IWorkspace interface. Pat
