[news.eclipse.tools.cdt] PC-Lint Error Parser in Eclipse

[rg117@xxxxxxxxxxx (RG)]

Hi all,

I am looking for advice on using PC-Lint within the Eclipse platform. The 
C-based project that I am part of, uses a custom perl script to build the 
project, there is also a lint option that does a PC-Lint analysis on the 
Source Code. Within Eclipse, I am using the perl script as an External 
builder, I also have a lint Make Target that runs the build script with 
the lint option. The output from lint is output into the console, it would 
be nice if the console output could be used to generate data to fill in 
the Problems & Tasks View/Tabs in Eclipse.

I have searched around and cannot find any Plug-in that integrates PC-Lint 
with Eclipse so I think I would have to create my own. Unfortunately, I 
have only very recently started using Eclipse and frankly do not know 
where to start. I know that I have to create an Error Parser to evaluate 
the PC-Lint output in console and then generate the right data for the 
Problems View.

Can anyone offer me advice on what I need to do, or are there any examples 
of something similar, so that I can reverse engineer it?

My spec is as follows:
version 3.3 of the Eclipse Platform.
version 4.0.1 CDT.
compiler is GCC 3.4
The project is all in C
PC-Lint version is 8.0
Development machine is WindowsXP Pro

Many Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Regards,

RG
