Re: [cdt-dev] Proper way to get CDT test plugins

[Ivan Šeďo <ikoframe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jonah,

thank you for the response. I was very unclear - I was thinking of (binary) plugins residing in p2 repositories. Yes, I know the CDT repository (which is also cloned as part of CDT Oomph project) contains the source code of those plugins. I was just wondering whether they are available already packaged. Maybe the CDT test packages are not of usual concern for developers developing on top of CDT (but not modifying CDT itself), but the packages also contain test-oriented API useful for developers extending CDT (such as Codan's CheckerTestCase).

I usually clone also CDT sources because I learn about it by inspecting it. But sometimes I can't import the sources along my projects and therefore I miss the test plugins.

Also, when I made my CDT-based projects Tycho-enabled so I could put them in CI, all plugins except the org.eclipse.cdt.codan.core.tests and org.eclipse.cdt.core.tests are downloaded and resolved.

I just thought that the core API concepts regarding testing (as mentioned Codan's CheckerTestCase) are part of the CDT SDK feature. But it seems they are not or I am doing something incorrectly.

I hope this detailed explanation will more useful for sketching my issue.

Regards,

Ivan

Hi Ivan,

The test plug-ins you mentioned are in the same CDT repo (there is
only one repo[1]) as the rest of the code. You don't have to import
all the projects, but you should be able to find the ones you depend
on in there.

If you have come back to CDT development after a long time away, you
may need to change how you handle your target platform. There is a
cdt.target[2] file that you can use to get your non-CDT dependencies
into your target platform.

HTH,
Jonah
