header file changes

[Trass3r]

How does it handle header file changes?
I guess it's not possible figure out which source files are affected.

It doesn't currently. It would be possible to figure out all the source files affected in theory (that information is stored in the PDB and blink already reads that, it just doesn't do anything with it right now).

[crosire]

See the following (this list also contains header files, but blink currently filters it for *.cpp files only):

blink/source/blink.cpp

Line 131 in 55f2534

pdb.read_source_files(_source_files);

Maybe it should output a warning at least that the change was detected and the project is now in a floating state.

It is? Isn't that an awful lot of data? Or does it filter system includes out?

[crosire]

Nope, they are all in. It is a lot of data.

Proof of concept is in the headers branch. It will compile all source files which include the modified header file.
