[cdt-dev] Using a build macro inside a tool command

[Ryan Hapgood <ryan@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm attempting to access a project context build macro (supplied  
through the projectMacroSupplier attribute in the projectType build  
definition) but have run into a snag... the macro is never resolved.  
The GnuMakefileGenerator tries to resolve it as file context, which  
falls back to an option context in:

org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.internal.macros.DefaultMacroContextInfo : 
 getNext()

which then tries to fallback to tool or configuration context but  
fails due to OptionContextData.getHolder(optionContext) returning null.

From my understanding (which is very new and possibly incorrect)  
this macro should eventually be resolved so if anyone can point out  
what it is I'm doing wrong it would be much appreciated.

NOTE: I also tried a configuration context macro supplier and (same  
as above) this fails.
