Re: [cdt-dev] Make Targets UI change
Hi Doug,
Please do not remove the view. When there are many files and folders under a project and a file is selected - "Build Targets" node won't be visible most of the time and the view is needed to select a target.
If you want to remove clatter in the perspective I'd suggest to remove Mylyn view. I do not think many C/C++ projects use Mylyn.

I do not mind changing the name of the Make Targets View.

Thanks,
Andrew

Hey gang,

I’ve been doing some work on a QNX BSP which uses Make Targets. I eventually got really annoyed that they are in a separate view and not in the Project Explorer.

So, as it turns out, the Common Navigator Framework makes this pretty easy and I’d like to contribute it in 9.1. As part of this, I plan on removing the Make Target View from the CPerspective default layout. I won’t delete the View in case someone really wants it. But once you see Build Targets (I renamed them too since they aren’t really tied to Make), you won’t want to go back :).

Let me know if you have concerns. Here’s a sneak peek. Still some workflow issues to work out before I commit it. Should be done by end of day or tomorrow.


Doug.
