Regular Expressions Parser Plug-in for Eclipse

A regular expressions parser plug-in for Eclipse implements error parsing for Eclipse/C/C++ Development Tools (CDT). Error parsers are used to parse output of build tools and report warnings and errors to CDT, which shows them to the user in editors and problem views.

Regular expressions are a very powerful tool. If you have no experience, there are many tutorials on the web. The regular expressions default configuration file for RegExErrorParser is located in the Eclipse installation directory.

RegExErorrParser plug-in is intended for:

  • all users of Eclipse/C/C++ Development Tools , who want to use a compiler that is not supported by available tool-chains
  • all implementers of custom error parsers. It can be used as a starting point that also enables quick write and test cycle
