Hi Leo,
Correct me if I’m
wrong, but it seems that the current multi version support does not provide the
capability for dynamic calculation of the tool-chains really installed on the
system. But what it does is allows converting from one tool-chain to another
based upon the converter info defined without taking into account whether or
not the tool-chain is installed on the system or not.

Question
Hi Doug,
I can’t remember
anyone trying to implement a dynamic list of enumerated options, but it
probably can be done. The Option class has an enumList member that
contains the list of enumerated values. You could probably modify the
list after your tool-chain was loaded.
Ø
Alternatively, did we
ever add the ability for an ISV to add in a customer edit dialog for an option?
No.
Ø
We have a few different
versions of our compiler that may be installed on the user’s system at
any time.
MBS does have
“multi-version” support. This is a somewhat
“heavy-weight” mechanism and is appropriate when the versions
support different options.
I also defined a
“multi-instance” support a while back (2 yrs ago?) which is lighter
weight and appropriate when the versions use the same option pages, but this
has not been implemented.
Regards,
Leo

Subject: [cdt-dev] MBS Question
Hey gang, for this e-mail, I’ve put on my QNX
software developer hat and I have a question on MBS. And, yes, this may be a
newsgroup question J, but it
is also more an ISV question.
We have a few different versions of our compiler that
may be installed on the user’s system at any time. I know how to
dynamically get the list of installed versions and I want to present that list
in a tools option on the compiler so the user can select which version to use.
Is there a way to dyanically fill out the list of enumeration values.
Alternatively, did we ever add the ability for an ISV to add in a customer edit
dialog for an option?
Thanks, and sorry for sounding like a newbie J.
