// TODO: Make maps of the dependent files and directories after the vectors no longer needed
// Provide a function to check if a dependency is either in the dependent files or inside one of the directories to ensure the plugin is behaving sanely
// Slave should check this when it reads the depend log of a tool
// TODO: Provide a function: bool needsToBeRebuilt(inputpaths, outputfiles)
// It should check if anything was added, changed or removed in the input paths.
// It should check if the output files were changed or removed.
// NOT DONE FOR NOW ??? It should check if the dependencies in the metadata of the output were changed or removed / in case it uses different dependencies / in case the dependencies are not known?!
// NOT NECESSARY AT ALL --- It should check if the dependencies in the metadata of the output in case the dependencies are not given in the inputpaths.
// NOT NECESSARY --- TODO: Provide a function for removing output files, it will also erase the status file and create a remove metadata file.
