Re: RE: [cdt-dev] Beyond CDT 3.1 
yeah as a matter of fact, why one should download entire resources when the requirement can be done by at least minimum downloads. Does CDT has this option.
   
  Is there any option to select specific compiler ?

  Just as a matter of question, why does this compiler need to be in CDT directly instead of making it a extra plugin to install?

If all compilers are included in CDT, what is the advantage of plugins in Eclipse? Then you also would not need to export extension interfaces but hook everything into CDT. Then we also include support for all doc generation tools, for all compilers, all debuggers, all... you name it.

If I want to use CDT with GCC I would like to have support as plugin for GCC. If I want XLC, Intel C/C++, MS VC++6/2003/2005, BorlandC, OpenWatcom, etc. pp. I would like to have a plugin for each. But I would like to see, that I can select the plugins e.g. on CDT download page, Update manager, or e.g. eclipse-plugins.info website. But I don't like to having to download 100MB CDT which has all support for everything.


BTW., Could someone enlighten me, why my build console does not highlight any info or error messages in the colors set in the preference pages?
Is this bug still active?
