RE: [cdt-dev] AST Build invocation from the CDT editor

[Doug Schaefer <DSchaefer@xxxxxxx>]

The AST gets created on demand by the features that need it. The ASTs aren’t persisted, i.e., the features throw them away when they are done, nor are they shared between features. They are temporary objects.

 

Why do you ask?

Subject: [cdt-dev] AST Build invocation from the CDT editor

 

Hi all,
I want to know when does the code , to build the AST, get invoked exactly (in CDT Plugin). Is it in the key press event of CDT editor. i.e. as and when user is keying in the code, it start updating the AST?

regards
