[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-7379?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin... ] Paul Richardson commented on JBIDE-7379: ---------------------------------------- Hey [~rob.stryker] Firstly my apologies to now answering sooner and that you have done so much work on this. I also created a topic branch with a version of import/export but was in [Teiid's repository||https://github.com/phantomjinx/teiid-designer/commits/TEIIDDE...] rather than jboss'. Anyway, they look pretty similar although your API has made some assumptions which I tried to avoid, ie. * The exported storage unit would be a zip. I used a non-specific IStorageSource interface then implement a DirectorySource initially for testing purposes; * The config/artefacts being exported would only be parts of an IServer; * Export constituents (IStorageUnit) would declare themselves part of categories, which become sub-directories in the directory storage source or in a zip/jar storage source. The upshot of this is that with your API only expecting to export server configuration, only the Teiid server configuration would be exportable. However, Teiid also has file artefacts, stored in other parts of the workspace which need a separate storage unit (not implemented yet). I was intending to implement this as extensions of the Import.../Export... actions in Eclipse. You may have done the same, just cannot see it at the moment, what do you think? Not sure where next with this. TEIIDDES-1119 work has stood still since June due to my switching to working on the Teiid Komodo engine. I think I am due to return to it when the engine has been stood up but that probably will not be for about 6 months or so. Thus, don't know whether to ignore my branch, merge in some of its ideas ... Anyway, let me know your thoughts/plans. Apologies for not replying sooner. Paul -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.11#6341)
