CDT call gcc (Windows flavors) [message #142105]

How does the CDT call gcc.exe from within Eclipse? What is the actual
process? I am having a hard time tracing who calls what and with what
options. I am trying to trace all the way down, from the time the CDT
workspace/project wants to call gcc.exe with the options all the way to
the actual call to the Win32 shell (c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe -blah
blah).

I want to write a small plugin to slightly change the process. :)

Thanks in advance!

I am using Windows XP Pro, latest cygwin, Eclipse 3.1.0M5 and CDT 2.1.0.
I am not sure how this information would affects these processes, so I
thought I would add it too.

Thanks!

Entirely unrelated to your question but I think you are supposed to use
Eclipse 3.0.1 with CDT 2.1.0 (or eclipse 3.1M5 with CDT 3.0M5)

Good eye. I don't think that is an option using the update site yet. My
bad. I will give this a go and see how far I get.

BTW: cdt 2.1 does run in 3.1M5 with a little tweaking. ;) DOH!!!

Thanks!

I don't think the CDT itself does -- the build tool does (ie., if you're
using Make, and your Makefile says to run gcc to build foo.o, then Make
runs gcc).

Hope
