different tabspace in different projects

[allstars]

hello

now i work with different projects developed by different teams

however they have different tabspace setting

one is 4 and the other is 8

below is my default settings

set tabstop=4
set softtabstop=4
set shiftwidth=4
set expandtab


so i am wondering is there a faster way to switch tabspace back and
forth?


thanks

Could you set 'exrc' and create an appropriate vimrc in each project
directory?

You could also setup autocommands if your project files are in specific
directories.

au BufNewFile,BufRead /path/to/project1/* setl ts=4 sts=4 sw=4
au BufNewFile,BufRead /path/to/project2/* setl ts=8 sts=8 sw=8

Note that these don't have to be full paths; ie this would work:

au BufNewFile,BufRead */project1/* setl ts=8 sts=4 sw=4
au BufNewFile,BufRead */project2/* setl ts=8 sts=8 sw=8
