Hi!
I was thinking about the Indexer and how we can improve it,
today.
Most notable is that the index for each module that uses it
is
re-created each time Deskbar is started. This is just bad.
Especially
the programs module takes quite some time to index all
.desktop files. I
think the index should be stored to disk and loaded instead
of
re-created on start.
I know that kamstrup already did some work on the index
branch. Maybe we
can use this as a starting point.
To store the index I'm thinking about a module listed at
[1]. They
differ in the type of the value that's stored. If we want to
store any
object we have to use shelve. I personally would prefer to
store just
strings, because with shelve we get problems with objects
from C modules
(we had this problem with storing history in the past).
Comments please ;)
