RE: [cdt-dev] Renaming gdb

Hi Mikhail,

There is a document describing the current Managed Build System model in
the CDT help at "CDT Plug-in Developer Guide" -> "Programmer's Guide" ->
"Managed Build System Extensibility Guide".  The model I discussed
yesterday is roughly a superset of this model and is described in
bugzilla 115935.

Thanks,
Leo

Leo,

I would be happy to help, but first I need to learn more about the
model. Is 
there a document(s) that I can read?

Thanks,
Mikhail
