Integrating a custom tool-chain in CDT | © 2008 Intel Corporation; made available under the EPL v1.0 Purpose Understand the CDT tool-chain integration mechanism Learn how to make a deep integration of a custom tool-chain into the CDT
Integrating a custom tool-chain in CDT | © 2008 Intel Corporation; made available under the EPL v1.0 Tools integration in CDT Multi-language support C/C++ IDE becomes Compiled Languages IDE Photran based on CDT Compilers co-existence Can easily switch from gcc to another integrated compiler Per-folder/file settings Debuggers Potentially other debuggers than gdb can be integrated as well Builders GNU Make and Internal builder are available by default CDT is open for others!
