FAQ 328: How do I implement an incremental project builder?
To implement an incremental project builder, you first have to create an extension for org.eclipse.core.resources.builders:
<extension id="Builder" name="eScript Builder" point="org.eclipse.core.resources.builders" > <builder> <run class="org.eclipse.escript.builder.Builder" > <parameter name="optimize" value="true" /> <parameter name="comment" value="escript Builder" /> </run> </builder> </extension>
The second step is to create a builder class that must extend the abstract IncrementalProjectBuilder superclass:
public class Builder extends IncrementalProjectBuilder { protected IProject[] build(int kind, Map args, IProgressMonitor monitor) { if (kind == IncrementalProjectBuilder.FULL_BUILD) { fullBuild(monitor); } else { IResourceDelta delta = getDelta(getProject()); if (delta == null) { fullBuild(monitor); } else { incrementalBuild(delta, monitor); } } return null; } private void incrementalBuild(IResourceDelta delta, IProgressMonitor monitor) { System.out.println("incremental build on " +delta); try { delta.accept(new IResourceDeltaVisitor() { public boolean visit(IResourceDelta delta) { System.out.println("changed: "+ delta.getResource().getRawLocation()); return true; // visit children too } }); } catch (CoreException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } private void fullBuild(IProgressMonitor monitor) { System.out.println("full build"); } }
It is important to return true in the visit method for those folders that contain the resources of interest. If you return false, the children of the resource delta are not visited.
