I just checked with some people using VS for cross-compiling. Common practice here is method 3 mentioned above. A plugin has been developed for error parsing and code navigation. This method is good enough. Method 1 seems to be possible. Is method 3 possible with CMake. > VC does support parsing of externally invoked tools, but you have to fit > in with how it expects the error messages to be formatted, this is how > we used to integrate Lint into our VC IDE.
