Description Miwako Tokugawa CLA 2008-09-26 19:28:26 EDT 
To reproduce, you can create a gnu project, modify a discovery option (such as turning off "automate discovery of paths and symbols" in "Debug", and then create a new configuration -> copy settings from the existing configuration "Debug". 
Discovery Options doesn't seem to be propagated into this new configuration while other things (such as build variables / environment) are.
Is there a reason for this?
Comment 1 Manuel Wienand CLA 2012-03-26 09:13:32 EDT 
Since these bugs might be related:
If I create I new build config, the settings are copied, but some of them are not applied, e.g.:
- Setting the defined symbols are not reflected in the GUI (#ifdef ... #endif is still gray).
- Includes are not added to the tree in the project view, leading to annoying errors, because the GUI doesn't know about type XY, although the compile is fine with it.
- Files/Folders are shown as excluded from build in the tree, although they are included in the new build config.
