Description Jeffrey Overbey

2011-10-13 17:25:47 EDT

The only Photran plug-ins with dependencies on CDT should be
- cdtinterface and cdtinterface.vpg
- managed build plug-ins
- preprocessor.c
- automated tests which rely on these plug-ins

In particular,
- error parsers should be moved from photran.core into cdtinterface
- photran.core.vpg's spurious dependency on cdt.core should be removed
- the CDT references in photran.ui should be removed

Eventually, it would be ideal to eliminate the CDTBasedTextEditor class altogether, although that does not appear to be feasible in the short term.

The error parsers have been moved and the core.vpg dependency have been removed in HEAD.

Comment 2 Jeffrey Overbey

The dependencies from photran.ui have also been removed in HEAD.

I was not able to remove the CDT dependencies from ui.vpg since it depends on FortranElement (for completion proposal images) and CCompositeReconcilingStrategy.

This should be targeted for 8.0, then closed.
