No static libraries with Cross GCC? [message #708854]

Hello,

I tried new Eclipse Indigo under Ubuntu 8.04. Here I have to work with outdated ELDK 3.0 using GCC 3.2. Some of my projects are static libraries which have to be packed into an archive by using GCC Archiver 'ar'. Under "Project Properties -> C/C++ Build -> Tool Chain Editor" I let "display compatible toolchain only" and switched from "Linux GCC" to "Cross GCC". The "Used Tools" are switched and GCC Archiver 'ar' is missing. In "select tools" the GCC Archiver 'ar' is greyed out.

Now I am unable to build static libraries with Cross GCC. Is this a bug or intentional behaviour?

Best regards!
