Description

Hello;

SITUATION:

I am using scr-maven-plugin in eclipse 3.7 with m2e incremental mode;
project has some 1000 java files and 100 scr components;

on every java file save, eclipse runs JDT builder and then maven invokes SRC plugin;

as project progressed, the responsiveness of eclipse continued to dwindle down,
now to 3...5 seconds delay on each java file edit;

QUESTIONS:

1) is it feasible to support incremental build in scr plugin?
for this, plugin would have to:
a) keep scr components parse/build cache
b) support a new goal, when only a single file with scr annotations is requested for processing
but still produces complete scr xml;

2) has anyone devised a better solution to this?

thank you;

Andrei.
