Module Merlin_utils.File_idSource

Sourcetype t

An instance of t represents the identity of the contents of a file path. Use this to quickly detect if a file has changed. (Detection is done by checking some fields from stat syscall, it can be tricked but should behave well in regular cases). FIXME: precision of mtime is still the second?!

Sourceval check : t -> t -> bool

Returns true iff the heuristic determines that the file contents has not changed.

Sourceval get : string -> t

file_id filename computes an id for the current contents of filename. Returns a generic id, if the id can't be computed.

Sourceval get_res : string -> (t, string) Result.t

Same as get, but returns an error, if the id can't be computed.

Sourceval with_cache : (unit -> 'a) -> 'a
