Re: WinCvs: Force refresh after every command

Jerzy,

thank you for your reply. I forgot that folder view sometimes needs 
refreshing, too. To catch this automatically, we could add an "old-
style" (FindFirstChangeNotification) for the root in folder view that 
would catch only directory creates/renames/destructions.

In fact, I'd like to improve the folder/file view refresh to use 
ReadDirectoryChangesW so that WinCvs wouldn't need to reload the 
whole list on every refresh. But this will need a lot of time, which 
I don't have right now. For now, skipping the forced refresh (in 
addition to adding a watch for the folder structure) would be the 
fastest and least intrusive modification.

Or maybe a new parameter to launchCVS(..., bool 
bNeedFolderViewRefresh = true, bool bNeedFileViewRefresh = true) ?

My aim is to avoid file view refresh after "Diff" and "Query update" 
(and maybe rtag, rlog, log, commands with "dry run" flag, ...) - 
those commands don't change the sandbox and so no refresh is needed.

Well, I use flat most of the time view because it's convenient. I see 
instantly which files have changed. Sometimes they come from 
different directories, but even when they're from the same directory 
I don't want to need to choose the "current" folder manually -- flat 
view does that for me. (I have a solution with several projects, one 
folder per project.) This is not banging head, just my way of working.


Kind regards,

Kirill
