Adding include and library paths via a plugin [message #161160]

I am trying to write a plugin that adds include and library paths to CDT
projects
based on Cygwin.

Looking at the documentation I see there are ways to write my own types of
projects
and options, but what if I have a tool that just wants to add its own header
files and libraries
to an existing managed project. How can I add these automatically via a
plugin or by providing
my own autogenerated makefiles that can be called from the standard
generated makefile?

Thanks,

Eldad.

Eldad-

I don't see a reply for you. Did anyone tell you about the documentation
under Eclipse Help? If you have CDT installed there should be a section for
CDT Plug-in Developer Guide that has a Programmer's Guide section on Managed
Build system Extensibility Document. The sample code creates a plug-in and
then there is a section on Defining Environment Variables that provides Java
code for an Environment Variable Supplier. You can attach the class to your
plug-in in the ProjectType's projectEnvironmentSupplier extension point or
for a specific configuration in the Toolchain's
configurationEnviornmentSupplier extension point.
