Beginner's questions + referint-logfile missing

[Ilias Stamatis <stamatis.iliass@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'm kind of a C newbie and I'm trying to take a crack at fixing some things on the C codebase of DS. I've got a few really entry-level questions that I'd like to ask.

1. How can I re-compile only a single file e.g. /ldap/servers/plugins/referint/referint.c? How about re-compiling all plugins only?

2. What do you normally use to locate/jump to function/types definitions and declarations when you don't know what something is? C tags?

3. Which test cases are expected to be written in C, and which in python?

4. After compiling the server, git status reports a list of untracked files:
 
    benchmark_par_sds
    benchmark_sds
    docs/slapi.doxy
    doxyfile.stamp
    html/
    ldap/admin/src/defaults.inf
    ...

Is there a reason why all these are not added in the .gitignore?

Additionally, I have another question regarding the Referential Integrity plugin.

The "referint-logfile" attribute is supposed to point to the plugin's log file. The plug-in itself in my setup seems to work just fine. However the file /opt/dirsrv/var/log/dirsrv/slapd-localhost/referint declared in the configuration does not exist at all. Why's that? Is it somewhere else?

Thanks for your time,

Ilias
