Hi, Doug here. I'm going to document the vision I have for CDT's build model. My hope is that we can discuss this, finalize on the vision, and start working towards it.
A full build model would be all encompassing. It would serve the following clients:
- Builders, to generate build files for an external builder, or to feed the internal builder
- Parser, the scanner info falls into the build model
- Debugger, to figure out how which debugger to run given the target of the build.
The build has to support host toolchains, cross toolchains, and remote toolchains. We need the concept of "target" in the build system to determine what platform the build is targeting.
