Description MrCompiler Mising name CLA 2014-03-07 18:26:19 EST 
I have added new tool chains for the general project types
"org.eclipse.cdt.build.core.buildArtefactType.exe"
"org.eclipse.cdt.build.core.buildArtefactType.staticLib"
"org.eclipse.cdt.build.core.buildArtefactType.sharedLib"

Using the managedbuilder.core.buildDefinitions extension point. This works exactly as expected and my tool chain is properly listed in the CDT New Project Wizard, it can be selected and my property pages are available from the 'Advanced Settings" button.

However my new CDT Wizard is not called and the default managed build wizard is called so the project setup in create_project doesn't get invoked.

How can I set the Wizard and Wizard handlers for these project types when my toolchain is selected? Or is there another way to hook these projects when my toolchain is activated?

If I create a new project type my wizard gets called correctly, however if I add items they should up as seperate entries from the default ones.

Hi. I'm not sure I understand, are you trying to add pages to the existing CDT wizard? Or are you trying to create your own from scratch? There's a framework to add custom pages that you can use if you need to specify additional options, etc. You can find examples in org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.ui.tests/plugin.xml and org.eclipse.cdt.build.crossgcc/plugin.xml.
