Compile_commands.json

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm having issue setting up Emerge to analyze Zephyr RTOS, a rather large C project.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like Emerge to be able to read compile_commands.json files, that contain a list of all C directories, files, and compiler arguments.

@ddavidebor Thanks for filing this enhancement. I'd like to have a look at this in detail, but could you give me more details or point me to

1. the project/ repository where you have the issue
2. your current emerge configuration that you're using
3. an example of a compile_commands.json file

so that I can better understand the issue/enhancement here?

Thanks a lot 👋.

Hi @glato ,

The project is https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr and zephyr-based apps. As most Cmake projects, they generate this compile_commands.json:

compile_commands.json.zip

I fiddled with the example configs, but didn't keep any of the tests
