[cdt-dev] Setting up API tool to be based on CDT 8.0

[Marc Khouzam <marc.khouzam@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
 
to get started on the right foot, here is a reminder to take the 30 seconds to set your new API Baseline for changes to CDT 8.0.
Copied below from
http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/policy#Using_API_Tooling
 
1- Download the official CDT release you are building a patch against (if you are building a patch for CDT HEAD or CDT 8.0.1, you need CDT 8.0 from http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/builds/8.0.0/I.I201106081058/index.html
2- Unzip it in some directory (e.g, CDT8.0/)
3- In eclipse go to Preferences->Plug-in Development->API Baselines
4- Press the Add Baselines... button
5- Name your new baseline (e.g, CDT8.0)
6- Choose the directory of point #2 and press OK
7- Make sure the new baseline is the selected one.

Thanks

Marc
