RE: [cdt-dev] Feb. Monthly Call

[Doug Schaefer <DSchaefer@xxxxxxx>]

Just as a quick summary of what I've done:

ILanguage defines the core capabilities of a language. When you add a new
language, you create an extension of the 'language' extension point. You
define an implementation of ILanguage for your language and you list the
content types that your language applies to.

ITranslationUnit.getLanguage() returns the appropriate ILanguage instance
given the content type of the translation unit.

ILanguage is adaptable. The intent is to be able to adapt this object to
other interfaces for things like UI. I use this facility to get at the
language specific object for the PDOM. And so far that is all I have of this
framework.

This code is all in HEAD.
