Re: [cdt-dev] Managed Make Builder configurations
|
Yes and no. Roughly .cdtbuild and toolchain schema are in relation
similar to those exists between class and object. Indeed, we can
describe any possible configuration without braking the limits of
existing model. For example, imagine that one of configuration
parameters is target CPU. In QNX toolchain this definition reqiers
separate setting extra command line argument for each step of build
process. And it works, no doubts. However, it seems to be inconvinient
and unnatural. Much better if on configuration level I can select target
CPU and don't care about tools parameters settings - MMB just borrows
them from extension that describes my toolchain. On the other hand,
selection of target CPU does not make sence for VC toolchain, or for the
Intel toolchain which is included into QNX build system: both tools now
support x86 platform only. So configuration parameters are
toolchain-specific. In existing model this is an abstract target level.

Thinking more about it, isn't it what is already in the managed build?
The toolchain is the target and configuration defined in the plugin.xml
while the build settings is the target and configuration defined in the
.cdtbuild. Could this understanding be correct or am I missing anything?
I guess we are missing the os and architecture. Maybe it could just be
an attribute of a target (plugin.xml definition), couldn't it?
