Re: [cdt-dev] Error parsers, slowness and cygwin

We can have cygwin toolchain, but it does not apply to error parsers... Should we create cygwin gcc error parser?
Then we need also cygwin linker error parser, cygwin make error parser and assembler? I think that the right solution would be user-configurable Regex error parser and let the users loose.

numerous times and it would be great to clean this up.

As the quasi-owner of CDT for Windows, I'll take that action and try to
work it into my schedule. But I'd like to hear others opinions on that
before I get to far.

Cheers,

In this case it can resolve it right when user select this action, saves a lot of time during parsing...
Btw when this command was added? I think eclipse right now is smart enough to open external location itself. At least it works from other tools.

I found out what it is. It is well hidden but actually very
useful. In
Problems view - do right-click on the problem marker and
choose "Open
external location". If the file exists on disk you would be able to open it - even if it is not in the project and even if
outside of the
workspace. This option works specifically when the file was
not found
in the workspace. Resolving cygwin path is an extra nicety here.

Thanks for the suggestion, I was considering submitting a
patch or two
in this area.

user preference
   to enable cygpath resolver,
   otherwise do simple substitution like you suggested earlier.

       Hi,

       Does anybody know the purpose of
ProblemMarkerInfo.externalPath?
       Related to
ICModelMarker.C_MODEL_MARKER_EXTERNAL_LOCATION. CDT
       takes some care to enter it in a few places. This
field is not
       being displayed in Problems view or Markers view.
Doubleclick on
       such entry (pointing outside of workspace) has no
effect. Anyone
       knows? There is another call to CygPath and consequent
       invocation of external program cygpath in
ErrorPattern (inside
       getLocation call). Again, this is called for each
line where it
       cannot resolve file name in order to populate the field
       "externalPath". Is it important to populate it with
translated
       path or it is possible to relax this requirement?

                  and how cygwin paths are handling in the
code. Cygwin
                  utility "cygpath" is used to translate
cygwin path to
                  windows, class
org.eclipse.cdt.utils.CygPath. While I
       have
                  no doubt about its correctness, it
appears that running
                  separate external program for each line
trying to map
       (not
                  yet resolved) filename to cygwin path is a major
       reason for
                  slowness of output parsing. A short test
of parsing
       with and
                  without the translation attempt shows
slowness of x100
                  times. Is this the best way of doing it? We use
       eclipse to
                  compile projects remotely and some of
them are big
       enough to
                  produce thousands of warnings where the
files are not
                  necessarily present on disk. Is it
advisable to replace
                  using of the utility cygpath with a
function which
       would do
                  something like a simple translation from
"/cygwin/c/" to
                  "C:/" or so? Perhaps there is already
such a function out
                  there somewhere?
