[cdt-dev] Re: CDT working area

Opening this up to the dev list...

I guess we need to start thinking about objectives for the next release. 
The main thing I think I'm looking for is C/C++ Search capabilities, at 
least the following:

        - Open Declaration
        - Open Definition
        - Search References

And this must include C++ class/namespace/template/etc. members.  Finding 
definitions and references do require a proper indexer.  All of these 
require full parsing including reference binding and not just the quick 
parse we have got working today.  To help make this happen, we have John 
Camelon and Andrew Niefer working feverishly on the parser and the symbol 
table.  We also have a new guy joining the group, Bogdan Gheorghe, who 
will help take care of the rest.

So Alain, as long as you closely coordinate with these guys, I have no 
problem with you starting on the indexer. We have Bogdan started on the 
Open Declaration (which we should be able to accomplish with the parser 
alone) so there should be not toe stepping there.  We would like to know 
what you are thinking of for the indexer to make sure we are all lined up 
in our expectations,

Cheers,

Bonjour
  I know you folks are been focussing on the Parser/build etc..
But I will start to look at the indexer in a few days.  Any other
area of interrests? just to avoid duplication.

So far suprisingly we have manage to work whithout to much toes stepping.
Not bad 8-).
