Hi David,
If you look at ede/base.el at the baseclass ede-project-placeholder, you
will see bits from an old implementation of a project cache. It used to
save just the root directories between emacs sessions, and the
placeholder was used in the project cache to speed up detection. The
goal was a "Recent Projects" menu item to load projects from. I never
got that far though.
It should be possible to revive that old bit of code and have a mode of
EDE that only creates placeholders for detected projects, and only loads
the project if the user asks, calls 'ede-compile', or some other
explicit action.
In this scenario, I'm sure it would be possible to trim ede/base.el, and
ede.el to be minimal, and provide just the root project detection. CLOS
would still be involved, but the result would be pretty light-weight.
I'd be happy to help figure that out if it would be useful.
Eric
