Mylyn Task List

Objectives

  • Task Data Refactoring
    • Currently not nomalized
      • repository configuration options stored in same file
      • Configuration data is being updated upon load anyway
    • Presentation information such as hidden/readonly status fields being persisted
    • Actions being included (although perhaps this should remain as is)
    • Lazy loading
      • currently loaded at tasklist load time
      • Could just have a flag indicating the existance of an offline file rather than load the data
      • What does this break?
    • Task Data Externalization
      • Switch to XML
      • Use IMemento for now
      • Separate files vs. one BIG file
      • Consider zipping all the individual xml files together into one zip file (similar to Open Office file format ODF)
