Bug 47435

Comment 1 Kleo Hapitas 2003-11-25 11:25:41 EST

The managed build feature needs to be enhanced for usability and for 
flexibility to support a large variety of build target environments as well as 
to better support multiple configurations of tool and tool settings. Support 
will also be added for handling different variety of underlying tools 
including different make utilities, as well as support for different file 
types (like lex/yacc).

Sean ..
  you've seen this one ?

Want to grab it ?

Comment 3 Sean Evoy 2003-12-05 11:26:04 EST

This is a little too vague to "grab". I have a number of point fixes that I am 
going to commit to, some of which will involve changes to the underlying build 
model.

8-), you'r right.
Hopefully the original poster can clarify this.

I currently use Winidea from isystem (www.isystem.com) for cross platform 
development. I use various C compilers for 68HC11, 68HC12, Coldfire... Windidea 
is well suited for this kind of work. But the editor is became a bit obsolete. 
So I am looking at Eclipse/CDT. But CDT does not completly do the job. I need 
to be able to say wich compiler/linker executables I want to use, where they 
are located, what are the arguments to pass to them, what executable to call 
before/after compiler/linker are called, what files extensions to use with this 
compiler/linker.
Is it clear ? Maybe you can try Winidea to know more.

Regards,
Nicolas

PR was targeted at 2.0 but was not resolved at release time. Changing target 
to 2.1

Sure, we enhanced managed build in 2.0. There is a new enancement owned by leo
for enhancements going forward.
