Re: [cdt-dev] Using Eclipse CDT's Parser in a Standalone Refactoring Too

[Vivian Kong <vivkong@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Chris is right I'm planning to generate the parser and indexer jars in our
build.  I'll send a note to the list once that's ready.

You can deploy the parser, the AST, and the indexer as standalone JARs.
See the StandaloneFastIndexer class.  You will not need generally
Eclipse/OSGi to run the jars but you will need org.eclipse.core.runtime and
org.eclipse.equinox.common for some things such as CoreException.

I don't have any public examples of this to show you unfortunately.

I think Vivian was going to somehow work the generation of these jars into
the official build process but I don't think that's happened yet.  I'll let
Vivian correct me if I'm wrong.

Hi thanks for the replies all. I guess what I  wanted to know was whether
or not the CDT parser in the CDT library can easily be used for an external
tool.
I've heard that it doesn't really work well for something like this as it's
too closely integrated with the Eclipse IDE. Are there any external tool
projects which use aspects of the CDT package (maybe not necessarily the
parser)
which I could look at? I noticed a post from way back that someone was
considering using the parser for a static code analysis tool.
Cheers

  I guess the CDT parser is well suited for this as there is already a
  C++ refactoring plugin, see:
    http://r2.ifs.hsr.ch/cdtrefactoring
  C refactoring enhancements/extensions will be welcome.
