hello. I want to generate the name of output file that depends of #define statement from code . Is it possible ?

To explain what I want:
I have in code:
#define CODE_VERSION 100

after linking I want to have output file like this:
project1_v100.bin

with regards,
Adam

AFAIK this isn't going to be possible with any of the tools I know of out of the box (CDT or otherwise).

Since you presumably want to do this in your daily builds as well as within CDT you could do something like this to get the version out of the file:

gcc -E -dM version.h | grep CODE_VERSION | cut -f3 -d' '


I expect you may have rejected this option already, but I would recommend considering whether your version can be defined at the command line, so that you do a -DCODE_VERSION=100 to GCC and then that 100 (presumably in a makefile variable or similar) can then be used for the rule.
