Calling into CLion API - to communicate with CLion from another application

Answered

I am developing an application that needs to communicate with external debugging environment. For example, I need to be able to:

1. open/close external IDE.

2. send a message to IDE to set a breakpoint on a certain line of the code

3. invoke "continue" until next breakpoint is hit.

In other words, whatever a user typically does via IDE GUI, I need to be able to do it (or at least some subset of it) programmatically - from my application.

So the question is: what kind of API do you have to control CLion from external application.

 

At the moment I am investigating how to do this with Visual Studio, but, looking at CLion, I was wondering whether it has an API to do what I described above.

Thank you.
