RE: [cdt-dev] Determining IMakeTarget execution success

[<cebarne2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Alain.

It's good that I can get to the information
I want (if errors or warnings occured).  I think I'll enter a bug
against this to have these methods return an IStatus.  It would be
much cleaner if the IMakeTarget.build() returned the IStatus in an OK,
Warning, or Error state.  Of course, there are probably many little
pitfalls of which I'm unaware.

Again, thanks for the example code.
 It will keep us going while the bug is open.

Chad

Hmm ... It is a good request.

The IProject.build() or the IMakeTarget.build() will throw a CoreException
and the we can retrieve the IStatus from the core.  But we only throw
exception when something horrible happen, not for compile errors.  

One possible way to do this is to get the CMarkers on the project/folder,
since the error parsers will mark any pattern that they identify as a build
error.

Something like:

IWorkspace workspace = currProject.getWorkspace();

IMarker[] markers=
currProject.findMarkers(ICModelMarker.C_MODEL_PROBLEM_MARKER, true,
IResource.DEPTH_INFINITE);
if (markers != null && markers.length > 0) {
                
// Huston, we got a problem
} else {
                
// steady as she goes Mr. Data
}
