Papyrus-RT/Developer/Design/0.8/Codegen Extension
Extending the code generator
The PapyrusRT code generator can be extended using the Eclipse plugin extension mechanism. The org.eclipse.papyrusrt.codegen.cpp plugin defines an extension point called generator to provide generator classes. A plugin for a custom generator needs to define an extension linked to this generator extension point, and specify a custom generator class implementing this extension. The custom generator must be a subclass of AbstractCppGenerator, defined in the same org.eclipse.papyrusrt.codegen.cpp plugin.
In the definition of the extension, the type must be one of the following:
-
ClassGenerator -
CapsuleGenerator -
ProtocolGenerator -
StateMachineGenerator -
StructureGenerator
The class associated to the extension must implement the AbstractCppGenerator.Factory interface, which is used by the generator to create instances of each specific generator.
