Re: [cdt-dev] Source-to-source compiler based on CDT
|
CDT AST should represent gcc attributes. It simply hasn't been done yet. See
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=316230. Design and code contributions are welcome.

Hello all,
we've tried to create a source-to-source compiler to be used for
code transformation issues, based on the current CDT parser (org.eclipse.cdt.core.dom.ast.gnu.c.GCCLanguage,
current SVN trunk).
For the AST writer, we started with the ASTWriterVisitor
and modified it step-by-step to print out the full GNU-C language
set.
So far, so good - this worked. But then we found out that the GNU-C
keyword "__attribute__" is parsed, but not stored into the CDT AST.
Hence, we are not able to rewrite __attribute__ to our C output
stream. Reading the source code of the CDT parser "GCCLanguage",
class AbstractGNUSourceCodeParser (method: attribute__()), it
becomes clear that this keyword is is consumed, but not processed.
Because we need __attribute__ in our C code, this is a blocker for
us.
Is there someone who knows an extension or an alternative for the
CDT-parser "GCCLanguage" to solve this? Or is it planned to extend
the AST by the keyword "__attribute__" ?
Thank you in advance & best regards
Gerrit.
