IT/Production Acceptance/DXR

TODO - fill out info on dxr

• Add DXR bugzilla component - bug 517550
• DXR Tracking bug - bug 489834

Task List

• Start doing continuous re-indexing of the tree
• Switch to using http get for searches Completed.
• Show Classname:: as part of member sidebar on the right
• Make search results clickable anywhere vs. just on line number
• When searching of nsFoo, display a little summary of the class bases,derived, members
• Add links for #include header files
• Add derived:classname::method query
• Add ability to do Users:nsIFrameFrame::GetDocShell
• Switch python web app files from cgi to webpy
• Add derived/parent class info to source-view
• Searching for filenames should work for fullnames vs. initial portions (e.g., nsGlobal or nsGlobalWindow vs. nsGlobalWindow.cpp)
• Add support for C source
• Fix pop-up position so it isn't off the screen
• Fix Users query so it includes uses of the type directly in addition to uses of derived types (e.g., nsIFoo might have direct users if not an idl type)
• Change sort order of members in sidebar panel so it is alphabetical
• Tokenize macros so that embedded macros are clickable (e.g., NS_ProcessNextEvent resolves to NS_ProcessNextEvent_P)
• Investigate ways to deal with naming collisions. For example, where types, methods, or macros share the same name, sometimes we pick the wrong one for purposes of linkifying (e.g., NS_ProcessNextEvent).
• Make IDL pages, and other decl locations do a better job at providing links
• Add more query options to search page (e.g., looking for implementations)
• Add support for JS source
• Finish xpidl_xref so all parts of XPIDL are parsed (eg. c++ fragments, typedefs)
• Add Macro decl locations
• Add support for Obj-C/C++ source
• Integrate callgraph
• Show compiler warnings

• Improve post-processing speed, investigate better parallelism
• Investigate strategy for increment re-indexing vs. full clobbers
• Audit web app for security
• Fix srcdir vs. objdir links (e.g., PRInt32)
• Remove .html from source file names (mod_rewrite?)
• Add support for html/xml, perhaps with links to MDC doc pages
• Make dxr scripts path agnostic and more portable (python path stuff)
• Fix ctor html linkifying code so Foo::Foo works properly
• Figure out how to deal with code being ifdef'ed out (e.g., debug vs. non-debug build)
• Various fixes to dehydra script
• Multi-platform indexing
• Various front-end fixes (e.g., dojo UI stuff)
• Add gcov support
• Add build dependency map info - "what do I have to remake if I change something in content/html/document/src?"
• Make http://dxr.proximity.on.ca/dxr/mozilla-central/xpcom/ds/nsHashtable.h.html#144/Put work
