[cfe-dev] Contributing Apple's work on refactoring and indexing-while-building to llvm.org

[Marc-André Laperle via cfe-dev]

Hi Duncan,


This is excellent news! I was just reading about the new features and was curious as to how they were achieved. I am hoping that we can reuse most of this work in Clangd so that we can accelerate things and collaborate on the common code. I find that the core implementation in lib/Index is already useful, therefore, I'm greatly anticipating this contribution.


Thanks a lot!

Marc-André Laperle

Subject: Contributing Apple's work on refactoring and indexing-while-building to llvm.org

This afternoon at WWDC, we announced a couple of clang features as part of Xcode 9.  We plan to contribute these features back to llvm.org<http://llvm.org> promptly, after our schedules open up from the conference.


Argyrios Kyrtzidis will follow up in the next week with patches and a review plan for indexing-while-building in clang.

Alex Lorenz will follow up in the next week with patches and a review plan for refactoring support in clang with an accompanying libclang API.
