auto caching? about unite-tag

[tsukkee]

Hi zhaocai,
Thanks for your comment.

Sorry, but this plugin doesn't have such function now.
If we do that, we should think about how to load tags asynchronously.

One way I can think of is to export interface function for user. Then the user can use autocmd or command to load whatever they want.

And of course, it should be done asynchronously. Should vimproc has functions to do that?

Yes, I think we can do that with vimproc. But, it needs lots of work.
Unfortunately, I don't have much time to do that soon.
If you are interested in doing that, please fork and try to modify! Thanks.

asynchronously

I think this is difficult.

unite-tag loads and parses a tagfile by pure vim script.
The loaded data is stored to a dictionary of vim variable.
These operations can not at external process.

Maybe save the parsed dictionary to a file and restore next time.

I'm sorry for my very slow work, but I have implemented caching the parsing result (on tags-caching branch).
Although this is different from zhaocai's first request, I think this is useful.

Sorry, I missed this updates. I tried it and it seems that some background jobs is running after the cache is done. And that background jobs are slowing everything done. By the way, the caches files I have is about 18M.

@tsukkee I have a similar problem, when doing in a Padrino project ctags -R -f gems.tagsbundle show --paths`` the generated tag has a size of is 23 MB and it took me around 2 minutes until all tags were gathered without using neocomplete.vim by @Shougo. What about the further development of the things you did in your https://github.com/tsukkee/unite-tag/tree/tags-caching branch mentioned by @zhaocai?

[Shougo]

Done.
