files build execution order
- by Mahesh
Hi,
I have a data structure which is as given below:
class File
{
public string Value { get; set; }
public File[] Dependencies { get; set; }
public bool Change { get; private set; }
public File(string value,File[] dependencies)
{
Value = value;
Dependencies = dependencies;
Change = false;
}
}
Basically, this data structure follows a typical build execution of files.
Each File has a value and a list of dependencies which is again of type File. Every file is exposed with a property called Change which tells whether the file is changed or not.
I brainstormed to form a algorithm which goes through all these files and build in an order( i.e typical build process ) but haven't got a better algorithm.
Can anyone throw some light on this?
Thanks a lot.
Mahesh
