Hi,
 
regarding the "magic extension": due to some issues in org.eclipse.core.resources,
I'd recommend creating a "normal" cdt project and then doing
  File > New > Folder > Advanced > Link to folder in file system > uncheck "default location"
     > select EFS provider > Browse to remote folder
 
Doing that, CDT is capable of opening remote files in the editor, and (sometimes)
showing an outline view.
 
For the fixes required in CDT, an old patch exists from Tianchao Li:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=142092 
 
It should be good to "somehow" improve the EFS awareness of CDT,
though the way how include paths are funneled through EFS URIs
looks a bit scary. Perhaps the simpler and safer parts of this patch
could be applied.
 
Another overview bug for EFS in CDT is

There's a magic extension that needs to be created in order to inform the Eclipse resource manager that an EFS can be used to create projects. I'm not sure if that has been done for the RSE. If it has, then the CDT's new project wizard isn't standard and you should raise a bug report against it.
 
There are bigger issues at the moment for using EFS with the CDT. There are a number of places where we're assuming IPath's to access files. Those need to be changed to URI's. I'm a bit scared to change them all at this stage of the CDT's Europa cycle since we're a week and a half away from feature freeze. This might have to wait until next year.
 
    
Hi,
 
       I had a look at the new EFS for RSE and it works fine for creating simple projects, i just wanted to know if the new EFS has been integrated into CDT project creation. I recently update to the latest CDT and the functionality does not exist, but i remember seeing it in the previous versions. Is the integration held back due to the major changes to the new project model in CDT?
