RE: [cdt-dev] Extending the scanner in CDT 5+
|
Subclassing CPreprocessor is not supported, however you can influence
the scanner via the IScannerExtensionConfiguration (which is for
instance done in the languages deriving from AbstractCLikeLanguage). As
an example, if you need to configure additional keywords this will be
sufficient. If you have needs beyond what's provided by
IScannerExtensionConfiguration you should discuss them in an enhancement
request.
