Re: [Subclipse-dev] GSoC coding

Ok. So I will create a new plugin. Called
org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.ui.graph for example? Or maybe two
plugins: org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.ui.graph and
org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.cache

As I explained in the proposal I think the best will be to use an
embedded database for the cache. So the first thing I think I'll do is
to create a persistence tier to save the log information fetched from
the SVN interface using JDBC. This is: create a database structure as
I explained in the proposal. I can test this part making JUnit tests
and using example log information for different repositories. I will
probably use DbUnit that is an extension of JUnit and I have
experience with it.

Next I want to add an "action" to the context menu. Just below the
Team -> Show History... submenu. This action will perform these steps:
* update the cache information if it needs to be updated. Communicates
with SVN and saves the information in the embedded database.
* query the needed information to build the graph. Makes two queries
against the embedded database.
* build and show the graph.

The first two steps need the persistence tier. The third step at first
won't show a graph. Instead it will dump the information as plain
text, just to see if the cache is working as expected. When I have the
cache finished I will work in the graph: learn about GEF, choose a
graph layout,...
