suggestion for compiler plugin

[clyfish]

You can see, some files in /trunk/src/plugins/compilergcc are more or less the same.
Should these compiler plugins be merged to a common plugin?
I think the difference is the regex.
And we can put these regexs and other info into some data file.
So when a user want to add support for a new compiler, he only need add a new data file.
What a stupid suggestion!

btw, gcc in my Ubuntu feisty has locale info, so codeblocks treat all the warnings as errors.
a example:

test.c

Code

int main() {
}

Code

$ gcc test.c -o test -Wall
test.c: 在函数 ‘main’ 中：
test.c:2: 警告： 在有返回值的函数中，控制流程到达函数尾
$ export LANG="C"
$ gcc test.c -o test -Wall
test.c: In function 'main':
test.c:2: warning: control reaches end of non-void function

So I think compiler plugin should set locale to "C" before run gcc, or the regex will be incorrect.

FYI:

They are doing a complete re-design of the Compiler framework. I suggest you read the forum on it, note I don't read it myself.

Note, The developers forums are for developers not for users asking for new features.

Note, I myself am not on the Code::Blocks Team, but consider myself a newbie CB developer since I have submitted patches that have been applied to CB.

Sorry for the post.
I've read something about the re-design of the Compiler framework.
I agree Mandrav's good idea very much, one xml file per each compiler.
