I will preface this posting with the statement that I was unable to
find the info I'm looking for in the archives or via Google, although
I'm sure similar ones have been asked several times before. If you
have any links with the answers I'm looking for, I'd appreciate them.
I've been developing a tool suite for a programming language which
should have a powerful IDE, and rather than roll my own I'd like to
leverage off the Xcode team's work to take advantage of its project
management, source-code management, GUI, etc.
As I see it, I would only really need to supply the pieces needed for
my particular language, which are an editor, compiler, run-time
libraries, linker and debugger to have a complete system for
developers. The compiler, libraries and linker would fit easily into
Xcode's build process as they can be run as regular cli executables
within Xcode. The editor and debugger however would require tighter
integration with Xcode to provide syntax coloring, indentation, code
completion, sub-panes, pop-up support, variable/activation-record
displays, etc.
However, I am unable to find any details on how to build an editor and
debugger which would fit into Xcode's environment, and I don't want to
write external tools as that requires the user to switch environments.
Where would I begin?
