Hi Manuel,<br>
<br>
Even in your usual case --- "how do I parse this TU" --- the input
file is not a discriminating key : this is why we get
CompileCommands from the CompilationDatabase. At some point, you
need to choose one CompilationCommand amongst several. I believe the
real discriminating key is the ouput file (with the build system I
know). Beside, this would enable other usages for the
CompilationDatabase. It seems to me it is good to have the input
file as a key, but this is not enough.<br>
