Re: [cdt-dev] New plugins for the make builder

[David Inglis <dinglis@xxxxxxx>]

In relation to this I would like to give a summary of what we are 
planning for the Standard make builder.

- pull builder out of cdt.core and move to new plugin.
- create new nature for standard make.
- move make builder options (ui page) to it own property page (currently 
the build settings tab under C/C++ Project page.)
- move make view to new plugins
- add the following new options for the builder.
   - directory to run build command in.
   - options to run build on auto, incremental or full.
   - ability to specify the default build target for each build type 
(auto/incremental/full) .
- turn make actions into contributions (CView).
- create new dialog to launch/create user-define targeted builds other 
than 'all', 'clean' and 'clean all'
    (Note would use an underlying public API so that the managed build 
could add any targets it create on the project).
- create a convert action for old project to move them to the new 
nature/builder. (for backward compatibility)

Thoughts, comments?

Thanks
Dave.
