Description Barade 2011-10-14 10:40:25 UTC

Version:           4.2.3 (using KDE 4.7.1) 
OS:                Linux

I worked on an archiving tool and extracted a big archive (~800 MiByte) with many files and sub directories into a test sub directory of my project directory.
Afterwards I deleted all files by simply using "rm -R <dir>" and KDevelop didn't respond for a long time.
Consider that those files did not belong to the project!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Create/copy directory with many sub directories and files into your project's directory and delete everything afterwards.


Expected Results:  
Shouldn't slow down KDevelop since it could ignore files which are not part of the project?

Comment 1 Milian Wolff 2011-10-14 13:33:14 UTC

a) everything inside the project directory is considered part of the project in kdevelop

b) we have a separate bug that requests a way to filter/ignore subfolders

c) please provide a sample project + tarball to unextract to make it simpler for us to reproduce this issue and improve the situation
