AW: [cdt-dev] Creating a ScannerConfigurationDiscoveryProfile forgcctype

["Ploett, Norbert" <norbert.ploett@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Derek,

thanks for your hint, it does not seem to exactly solve my problem. My prob is with the class specified in the scannerInfoProvider's <run> element. I copied and modified this from the GCCWinManagedMakePerProjectProfile: 

    <scannerInfoProvider
      providerId='specsFile'>
      <run
        arguments='-E -P -v -dD ${plugin_state_location}/${specs_file}'
        class='org.eclipse.cdt.make.internal.core.scannerconfig2.GCCSpecsRunSIProvider'
        command="/aud/aud_dev/windows_tools/bin/i586-aud-gcc"
       />
      <scannerInfoConsoleParser
        class='org.eclipse.cdt.make.internal.core.scannerconfig.gnu.GCCSpecsConsoleParser'
       />
    </scannerInfoProvider>

The GCCSpecsRunSIProvider receives the command string and must figure out how to call the compiler. To that end it simply does an Ipath.toOSString() which in my case yields "\\aud\\aud_dev\\windows_tools\\bin\\i586-aud-gcc". Obviously this cannot be started as a process since the process is based on the Cygwin root directory.

A quick fix which works for me was to write a new class (CygwinGCCSpecsRunSIProvider) which does a CygPath transformation of the path and then calls the command. So I know how to deal with the problem now.

The remaining question is now whether it is a desirable enhancement to make my CygwinGCCSpecsRunSIProvider publicly available and make the GCCWinManagedMakePerProjectProfile (which is supposed to work on Windows / Cygwin) use this CygwinGCCSpecsRunSIProvider. Are there any opinions on that out there?

Thx for feedback,



Norbert Ploett

Betreff: RE: [cdt-dev] Creating a ScannerConfigurationDiscoveryProfile forgcctype cross compiler based on Cygwin

Norbert,

I came across this problem, and it was answered by Jeremiah Lott on this
list in February. There is actually a special class for Cygwin.

Try replacing

class='org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.internal.scannerconfig.DefaultGCCS
cannerInfoCollector'

with:

class='org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.internal.scannerconfig.DefaultGnuW
inScannerInfoCollector'
