deferred class EXTERNAL_TOOL
Summary
top
A simple way to create external tools without bothering too much about
"how it works"

"fill the blanks"

If your tool must parse many Eiffel files, or for any other needs, maybe you will have to redefine
argument_count
and
argument
.
You should call
bootstrap
first.
