RE: [cdt-dev] ScannerInfoProvider vs. PathEntryStore vs.CConfigurationDa

["Sennikovsky, Mikhail" <mikhail.sennikovsky@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Walter,

The New Project Model functionality will not break any public core
API/extensions available currently, so all existing custom build system
integrations should remain working. You can still use the
ScannerInfoProvider and other core API/extensions for integration with
the CDT core.

Subject: [cdt-dev] ScannerInfoProvider vs. PathEntryStore
vs.CConfigurationDataProvider Extension Points

Hi,

I have a question regarding the different extension points/APIs
currently available to provide input to the CDT source code parser and
indexer services (or any other service using these APIs).

Some background first: I have my own build system, which is completely
independent of the CDT build system (different builder, own persistance
mechanism, etc.). For the managed build of this build system, I
currently use the ScannerInfoProvider extension point to provide include
paths and defines (which basically works).

Now I want to migrate towards the new CDT project model. I tried
PathEntryStore, but this seems to be rather complex. I also found
CConfigurationDataProvider, but that is probably more than I need.

What is the right entry point to use? What APIs do I really need to
implement, in case one of the two options I found is correct? Or can I
stay with ScannerInfoProvider also in the future?

Thanks a lot in advance,

Walter
