[cdt-dev] Exposing headless build results

[Dmitry Kozlov <ddk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm working on issue *300554* 
<https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=300554> CDT headless 
build extension to report build success/failure by headless build 
application exit code.
But I faced that IProject doesn't return exit code, and in 
Project.internalBuild() result, returned by BuildManager
result = workspace.getBuildManager().build(...)
is not exposed.

Moreover, in BuildManager.basicBuild() this result is always setup with 
code indicating that there was a build error:
MultiStatus status = new MultiStatus(ResourcesPlugin.PI_RESOURCES, 
IResourceStatus.INTERNAL_ERROR, Messages.events_errors, null);

Is it possible (and what's the procedure is) to change platform API to 
add build which returns build result?

May be you guys can suggest other ways to workaround this platform API 
limitation to return build result?
