Re: [cdt-dev] CDT builder invoking java method rather than an external process.

What is C symbol tagging? If you mean Indexer it is not tied to a specific builder, so overriding a builder
is probably a right approach for you

Hi,

 

I was wondering if you can possibly help me please.

 

I would like to write a cdt plugin to modify/extend the CDT makefile builder to replace the external process call with an internal java method call, so that I handle the build programmatically in Java/Scala rather than having to resort to an external process invocation.

 

My build process, generally involves the following steps:

-          Commit code to a local git/hg repository

-          Push code up to a remote server

-          Perform a build on that remote server

-          Pull down any updated auto-generated header files for C symbol tagging

 

Can you advise whether it is possible to easily replace the external process invocation with a java method call using the existing CDT plugin extensions, or is using an external process the pragmatic solution?  I guess that I could construct a new builder, but I don’t want to lose any of the automatic C symbol tagging.

 

Any advice that you can provide would be kindly appreciated.

 

Regards,

Rob
