RE: [cdt-dev] Microsoft VisualC++ toolchain

["Recoskie, Chris" <crecoskie@xxxxxx>]

Your plugin definitely sounds interesting and would complement the prototype Win32 debugger nicely.  Doug Schaefer is doing the Win32 debugger in his spare time, you should ping him if you have questions about it or would like to contribute to it.

 

Personally I don’t see a problem in theory with your toolchain becoming a part of CDT somehow, as long as it works with CDT 3.0, and as long as it’s going to be maintained.  Since the 3.0 release is going into the release candidate cycle soon it’s probably most appropriate to think of this as a potential activity that we’d look at post-3.0

 

Perhaps once your plugin is finished you could demo it for us so that the build committers and other interested parties could have a look at it.

Is anyone interested in this?

For the past few weeks I've been developing a new plug-in which includes Microsoft VisualC++ toolchain, including but not limited to:

- NMake makefile generation
- Scaner configuration discovery profile
- Environment supplier
- Automatic configuration

I'm very close to finish the plug-in; is it possible to contribute back to CDT? Who should I talk to? I would mantain this plug-in, and also I would like to became an official developer for CDT.

One more thing, I saw on CVS that there is a Win32 debugger on the works. I tried it but hangs misserably trying to set a breakpoint. Who is reponsible for this code? I would like to help coding it and testing.
