Summary: Virtual filesystem
Product: clang
Version: trunk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows NT
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P
Component: Driver
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]

It would be nice if Clang had a way to allow users of it to provide a virtual
filesystem class to replace the system filesystem calls.
For me, the use would be to allow directories and "files" to be provided at
runtime by plugins (autogenerated and otherwise, such as #include
<with/some/parameters/here>). Other uses would be mapping to HTTP and caching
the result, to allow #includes from Github or whatnot. If you look at libclang
there's already a RemapFiles which works around the lack of VFS support.
Please consider this.
Thanks
James
