open project, invalidate caches from command line.

Hello chandra,

You can use DumbModeListener.exitDumbMode() to get a notification when indexing
is complete, FSRecords.invalidateCaches() to invalidate the caches and Application.shutdown()
to exit IntelliJ IDEA.

I would like to start intellij, open a project and once intellij
indexes - invalidate caches and exit intellij process. I would like to
repeat this experiment to find out indexing time taken by intellij for
various sized projects.

[Note: I have instrumented/modified intellij community edition to log
index time. So, I'll get the index time from idea.log]

Is there a way to do this?

Dmitry,

Thanks for the reply.

Is there any API to find number of files indexed?
I can get the information from com.intellij.util.indexing.FileBasedIndexing, I would like to get this information through an API (instead of patching/modifying FileBasedIndexing.java, and patching ulitmate edition with that).

Thx,
Chandra

Hello chandra,

No, there is no API for that, because we've never needed that.

Before intellij starts indexing, it spends some time in 'Scanning for files ..'. Is there a way to get time spent in this 'scanning for files' operation?
