Re: [Subclipse-dev] SVNActiveChangeSetCollector listens for changes in derived folders

Hi,

I have more informations about this problem.

There are at least three IResourceChangeListeners running during
workspace build.

1) FileModificationManager from org.tigris

2) TeamPrivateListener from org.tigris

3) SubscriberResourceCollector from org.eclipse.team inicialized from
Subclipse

All three are processing the same tree of deltas (same
IResourceChangeEvent instance). Visiting resources deltas is cheap but
not completely free - best performace can be achieved with one resource
change listener per subclipse.

I propose:

- Merge FileModificationManager and TeamPrivateListener into one
SubclipseResourceChangeListener

- Modify SubclipseResourceChangeListener to skip derived resources

- recode all about ChangeSet for SubclipseResourceChangeListener and get
rid of org.eclipse.team.internal

Questions:

Are there any public APIs for Eclipse Change Sets feature? I seems many
of them are only internal.

How is Eclipse Change Set related to Changelist from subversion 1.5?

Regards,

Martin
