使用eclipse进行Frama-C开发：自动完成在某些情况下不起作用

Question

I am developing a Frama-C plugin. I use Eclipse for the development. If I write "normal" OCaml-function-calls (of own functions and system-functions), the tooltip shows me available functions. For example: if I type String.i eclipse provides String.iter and other functions as possibilities in a box.

If I want to call a frama-c function, like Ast.g for Ast.get() , or Db.Value. , this doesn't work that way, no information of matching functions is provided.

Is it possible to activate that?

Answer 1

I finally found a solution that works for me:

1. I downloaded the sources from the Frama-C site.

2. I copied the content of the src-folder to /usr/src/frama-c

3. I added a folder to my project (in the directory where my own .ml-files are located)

4. When creating -> click on advanced -> "Link to alternate location"

5. Here, I defined /usr/src/frama-c as location

6. After clicking on Finish, the autocompletion for the frama-c-functions are available.

->Goal reached.

Possible Problems for others: Update of the framework -> The sources will not be updated, because manually added -> Functions may be not provided (not relevant for me, project not big enough that there are lots of framework-changes)

Thanks Lucky J. for the help :)
