Project Motivation

The Shared Code Project is a small set of Eclipse plugins to support dynamic source code search and sharing among a team of Eclipse users. The SCP idea is to provide developers with an easy-to-use interface to search for source code and share source code among developers, which can be leveraged in the applications. Developers can make yours source code on Eclipse Workspace available to a lot of people, adding special metadata into these source code, making way for others developers find easy source code, in ways never possible before. SCP is based in a peer-to-peer communications and file sharing, therefore, the intention is to use the Eclipse Communication Framework (ECF) as base, because ECF provides an open source framework supporting the creation of communications-based applications on the Eclipse platform, using a peer-to-peer network. SCP focuses on the development of tool of collaborative.


Goals

  1. Enable easy-to-user searching of source code across multiple Eclipse workspaces
  2. Support metadata-based searches using Java annotations and/or Eclipse markers. See here for candidate metadata types.
  3. Support the delivery and view/presentation of matching source code in response to remote search requests
  4. Support search restriction based upon source license type, as well as individual and group-level search restrictions

See here more details of how these goals will be achieved.
