[cdt-dev] Launch configurations coupled with specific toolchains
|
Hello,
A group of us here at the IBM Linux Technology Center are developing a
bundling of Eclipse + other plug-ins + the CDT, including a custom CDT
toolchain which superclasses the GNU toolchain, but uses gcc, etc in a
different path.
The CDT documentation seems to imply that there's a way to connect a
custom debugger path to a toolchain; Klaus Kiwi found this reference at
http://help.eclipse.org/helios/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/reference/cdt_u_new_proj_wiz_toolchain.htm
"A toolchain is a set of tools (such as a compiler, linker, and
assembler) intended to build your project. Additional tools, such as a
debugger, can be associated with a toolchain. There can be several
toolchains available, depending on the compilers installed on your system."
However, when I look in the CDT source code and use the UI, I haven't
found any such connection. The code for the DSF GDB debugger, for
example, just uses the default debugger command from the
DEBUGGER_DEBUG_NAME_DEFAULT constant defined in the
org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.IGDBLaunchConfigurationConstants package.
Also, I haven't found anything linking a toolchain to a launch
configuration. Is there any communication between these objects? Are we
missing something here?
Thanks for your consideration,
- Corey
