KDevFileManager performance

[Andras Mantia]

Hi,

 I'm worried about the performance problems in the KDevFileManager 
class, due to the KDevProjectItem* way of storing the data. If these 
classes help later with the model/view stuff, I have no problem with 
them, but due to their tree-like structure it is hard and time 
consuming to work with them. For example if you want to get all the 
files that were added to the project, you would need to go through this 
structure using a recursive method. To find if a url was already added 
or not, you would have to do the same. To get information about the 
item, again, a search through all of the items.
 For this reason I have a suggestion, which is to move allFiles from 
KDevProject to KDevFileManager. The reasoning is that this way I could 
implement a file manager which stores the URL->KDevProjectItem* mapping 
in a QHash or QMap and it will be much faster to retrieve all the 
above. allFiles could have access directly to this map, inProject could 
get the QList of allFiles and find there the URL and so on. It would be 
even more better if allFiles would return a QHash<KUrl, 
KDevProjectFileItem*>.

Comments?
