Re: [cdt-dev] Static code analysis - > Codan and Sonar

Ok Elena, I thought that was a good way for both projects to share the effort required to write rules but I missed the point.

I'm going to just focus my attention on the CDT/AST part as I'm pretty sure the AST available through gcc is too much compiler oriented and I'd like to stay fully in the java world.

Not is was not designed to work outside of eclipse platform, because most of it functionality right now
is UI integration with eclipse anyways, in particular with CDT. Theoretically you can extract parser and ast builder for c/c++
out of cdt and use on its own but I don't think anybody even did that. The framework (codan) in general it relies on eclipse plugin framework,
and at most can be run headless (without UI) but it would still use eclipse.
If you want to write something which is not eclipse based I suggest to use gcc extension to write checkers rather than CDT/AST ones.
