Re: [cdt-dev] CDT Build - What does "Updating Project..." actually do ?
|
While progress monitor displaying this message, Eclipse refreshes
project. Actually, Make Builder cannot guess which files in the project
were modified during the build session., so it applies refreshLocal to
the whole project, which is a time consuming operation for a big
project, like in your case. At the first glance there is some space for
optimization,. For example, maybe being a low priority operation,
refreshing can be done out of the UI thread to avoid user waiting of its
completion. But I'm afraid to make any estimations about performance
improvement.

All,
Some of our users of the CDT are complaining about poor performance.
Well,
there are many contributors to this, but one in particular is a
post-build
delay. After the makefile has been built, the build continues to run for
a
while with the "Updating Project..." message. What is it doing? With
some
of our projects, even if trivial builds, this can take 30 seconds or
longer
(granted, there are a lot of files in the project).
For this particular project, there may be 500 C/C++ files, but only a
handful are used for the build. There are likely thousands of files
total.
These files are coming from a linked resource. It is a standard make
project.
If I can determine what is occuring at this time, I can begin to
eliminate
bottlenecks (is it the network, the CM system, etc?).
