Compiler Integration [message #630497]

We are currently looking for the best way how to integrate the
Object Teams compiler, which is a variant of the JDT compiler,
in Maven3.

Technically, our compiler provides the exact same API as the
JDT compiler. We only need to make sure that a different
artifact is used as the compiler implementation.

Previously, we had a hacked version of plexus-compiler-eclipse
which apparently we cannot bring to Eclipse due to legal issues.

This makes me think maybe tycho-compiler-jdt will be our friend.
However, before diving into technical details I'd like to know if the
code for that component will move to Eclipse and whether any
CQs have been filed for that, etc.

TIA,
Stephan

the tycho codebase (including tycho-compiler-jdt I assume) is planned to be moved to eclipse. Jason van Zyl may have more details on the parallel IP process.

Technically, I am not sure if this is the way to go.
See our previous discussion with the scala compiler guys

and the related open bug
