me to have the user which configuration they will use by default. (The
targets are slightly different for each configuration, but not so
different that a different type of project is necessary.) I have read
the Managed Build Extensibility Reference Document for version 2.1.
Also, it would be nice if someone could point me to some information on
how to write an error parser, and possibly a binary parser. I am not
really sure how much work this involves, and it is not absolutely necessary.
Thanks in advance,
Ben

The Error parser is not to hard, I imagine a binary parser is similar.
take a look at
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.cdt-cor e/org.eclipse.cdt.core/src/org/eclipse/cdt/internal/errorpar sers/?cvsroot=Tools_Project#dirlist
for the code to the existing cdt error parsers. You will also want to
look at the plugin.xml file for the existing cdt error parser and binary
parser plugins (extract the .jar files with an archiving utility like
winrar or jar.exe that comes with the java jdk).
To start, create a new plugin project.
When the project is created, click on the "Extensions" of the project
page to add a new extension of the org.eclipse.cdt.core.ErrorParserpoint
extension point. Be sure you connect to this existing extension, don't
try to add/create a new extension point.
You now need to edit the plugin.xml file manually. There should exist
an extension tag that looks like:
<extension
point="org.eclipse.cdt.core.ErrorParser">
</extension>
You will need to add an id attribute, a name attribute, and an
erroparser element that points to the ErrorParser class that you are
going to implement, eg com.mycompany.MyErrorParser:
<extension
point="org.eclipse.cdt.core.ErrorParser">
id="MyErrorParser"
name="%MyErrorParser.name" <!-- this will be referenced in the
plugin.properties file, don't forget the '%' -->
<errorparser
class="com.mycompany.MyErrorParser">
</errorparser>
</extension>
Now, edit the file plugin.properties an add a line for the ErrorParser
name, but leave out the '%' symbol. eg:
MyErrorParser.name=My Error Parser
Now all thats left is to create the error parser class itself, eg
com.mycompany.MyErrorParser. You can use the plugin framework to run a
debug mode of eclipse to debug your error parsers.
My guess is that binary parsers are similar, but the attributes and
elements in your extension tag will be different. Again, look at the
CDT binary parser plugins for examples.
You can extend many extensions in one plugin, or you may prefer to
create multiple plugins for each extension.
Good Luck,
David

Thanks.
The error parser I am writing is meant to be used with a new managed
build configuration. Can it be included in that extension or should it
be another?
Thanks

When you saw new, do you mean a new plugin that you are writing to
perform managed builds? or do you simply mean that you want to use the
parser when a new managed build project is created?
If you are writing a new managed build configuration plugin, you can
include the error parser in it, but the parser itself will still need to
extend the org.eclipse.cdt.core.ErrorParser extension point.
Either way, the new plugin should appear in the list of available error
parsers listed in the project properties dialog.
Project->Properties->C/C++ Make Project->Error Parsers tab.
If you are trying to get more complicated then that, eg you want the
plugin to appear only for your new managed build configuration plugin,
then you are getting in over my head. You might be able to extend the
cdt error parser plugin without using the cdt extension point, and then
create your own extension point for within your managed build plugin,
but again, thats getting over my head, I have never done it.
Also, check out the eclipse.platform group for more specific info on
writing plugins in general.
Good luck,
D
