Re: [anjuta-devel] New project interface and introspection

[Sébastien Granjoux <seb sfo free fr>]

Hi Abderrahim,


I have changed the interface to use GObject but I have an issue with the 
proxies.


In the project manager plugin the node are loaded in a different thread. 
Before calling the ianjuta_project_load_node function, I create a proxy 
node, this node copy only the common data of the node (file, name, 
properties, state and type). Then, I remove the real node from the 
project tree and and replace it with the proxy. With GNode, it is easy 
to do, I just need to exchange the data pointer.

The tree now contains a node (the proxy) where all anjuta_project_node 
function are still valid and I have a backend node not used by anybody. 
I can use it in the thread that will reload it.

When The loading thread is completed, I remove the proxy node with all 
its children and replace it with the backend node which has been reloaded.

I cannot do the same with a GObject. Do you have an idea to handle this ?

I can make a full copy of the node but I'm a bit annoyed to have to 
define a copy function for all node objects while it's not really needed 
because only the backend thread will access to these data.

Sébastien
