ClearCase plugin for Qt Creator
-
Well, in ClearCase explorer it displays an icon to the right of the original icon (V for checked-out, crossed V for hijacked, none for checked-in). This is an option too...
-
to the left, pardon me
-
ClearCase is not on my ToDo list and I maintain the VCS stuff right now.
Feel free to implement a plugin though! Qt Creator is a open source project and you guys obviously are developers or you would not be requesting a plugin;-)
-
That was my intention from the first place. That wasn't a feature request, but rather a request for information :)
I'll try to do this and see how it goes...
-
Hey,
Thanks for all your help.
I'm almost done with the plugin :)I still have a problem - when I do check-in (aka commit), I hold a FileChangeBlocker for the file (it is changed from read-write to read-only), but I still get the "file changed outside Qt Creator" message.
How do I avoid it?
-
Oh, good question! I think Creator triggers on all changes to the file, even if it is only meta-data... No idea how to get around that.
-
The problem is with runVCS running synchronously, so notifies aren't blocked. Maybe you should add a real blocker for synchronous operations (e.g. expectFileChanges() should set some variable that will be tested on checkForReload())
-
About icon overlaying - I found that function in FileIconProvider (works by mime type or extension). Problem is it cannot be replaced with a customized one...
What I'd like to do is use my own FileIconProvider, and use the overlay function to overlay a small status icon (or widen the icon to add a status icon next to it)
-
Better ask the guys on freenode :)
I hardly use CC nowadays, so my motivation is low ;-)
-
It looked too complicated, and I wasn't familiar with Creator's codebase.
I guess today I'd use the Git plugin as a reference rather than Subversion too...
