RE: [cdt-dev] Problem to develop a toolchain

["Treggiari, Leo" <leo.treggiari@xxxxxxxxx>]

The "null null" usually occurs when the Managed Build system cannot find
a tool that produces the file extension specified for the target.  If
that is "r37" in your case, then try adding:

defaultExtension="r37"

to the target definition.

Subject: [cdt-dev] Problem to develop a toolchain

Hi,

I trying to develop toolchains for Visusal C and a compiler from IAR.
After
I've read the cookbook 'Managed Build System Extensibility Document', I
defined a tiny toolchain, which contain the calls for the compiler and
linker
only. To test the toolchain, I created a project with 'Managed  Make C
Project' and added durectory with a C-File to the project. This file was
compiled right, but the call of the linker failed, because the entry
within
the generated makefile was

 test: $(OBJS)
 @echo 'Building target: $@'
 null null $@ $(OBJS) $(USER_OBJS) $(LIBS)
 @echo 'Finished building: $@'

instead of

 test: $(OBJS)
 @echo 'Building target: $@'
 xlink -o  $@ $(OBJS) $(USER_OBJS) $(LIBS)
 @echo 'Finished building: $@'

Has someone any idea how I can solve the problem or how I can debug a
generated plugin?

The content of the file 'plugin.xml' is:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <?eclipse version="3.0"?>
