Let's consider compile/inc/src/main/scala/sbt/CompileSetup.scala.
There are multiple Output types, and according to Eclipse importing
xsbti.compile.Output within the package sbt does not work because the
import is shadowed by sbt.Output.
However, compilation proceeds just fine within SBT. Reproducing the
example however gives the same warning, if the files are in the same
project. The problem here is probably that the shadowing Output
is declared in the same package but in another project, and that seems
to give different results in Eclipse and SBT, but relying on
that looks fragile.
Reading the spec is inconclusive since it doesn't match with Scalac's
behavior — see
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/scala-internals/-Rquc2HBYLk/discussion .
ForkTests has the same behavior as CompileSetup.
Resolution of https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-4695 seems to be to deprecate
inheriting from a class in a subpackage. This commit is an alternative solution,
possibly to be reverted or restricted if resolution of SI-4695 changes or if this
proves to be too conservative in practice.
Review by @gkossakowski. With separate inheritance/function call dependency tracking,
this probably should only pull in package objects with inheritance dependencies on
invalidated files.
We store `Seq[xsbt.api.Compilation]` in `Analysis`. Compilation are
being appended to sequence for every iteration of the incremental
compiler.
Note that `Compilation`s are never removed from the sequence unless
you start from scratch with empty `Analysis`. You can do that by using
sbt's `clean` command.
The main use-case for using `compilations` field is to determine how
many iterations it took to compilen give code. The `Compilation` object
are also stored in `Source` objects so there's an indirect way to recover
information about files being recompiled in every iteration.
Since `Analysis` is persisted you can use this mechanism to track entire
sessions spanning multiple `compile` commands.
- Read macro modifier from method definition.
- Always recompile downstream files after a file containing macro defs is recompiled.
- Source is extended with a hasMacro attribute. Mark suggests that this might be better
tracked in Relations, but I'm not sure how to make that change.
Reduce AnalysisCallback interface:
remove discovery
simplify dependency notification methods
Use map of classpath entry to Analysis for locating
source API for external dependencies
Handle classpath changes by locating class
on classpath and either locating Analysis/Source
as above or comparing Stamp. This requires storing
the class name of a binary dependency now.
Make this process aware of full classpath, including
boot classpath
