Re: [cdt-dev] 'Project Build' vs 'Build Configurations > Build All'

I'm seeing a big difference in CDT model activity between a standard project build (builds only active configuration) and a request to build all build configurations (via 'Build Configurations > Build All'). The latter seems really sparse. Before I delve into this, does someone know if this is expected behavior? The stuff I'm coding assumes a project build will create the C model containers and binary objects for the build's output files. It happens in one case, but not the other.

I don't know a whole lot about the c model (other than it doesn't know anything about build configurations...).  Currently BuildConfigurationsJob delegates to the MBManager to build a project's configurations.  This simply builds the requested configurations as part of a single platform build request.  
As far as cdt.core is concerned, the active configuration doesn't change, so I guess if the binary parsers only run when content changes under the active configuration's output directories(?), it'll miss any changes in other build output directories.
