Hi Derek,

Here is how you could use the ICProjectDescription API for storing your
custom data within the .cproject file:

ICProjectDescriptionManager mngr =
CoreModel.getDefault().getProjectDescriptionManager();
ICProjectDescription des = mngr.getProjectDescription(project, true
/*writable description*/);
//to store project-wide info use
ICStorageElement el = des.getStorage("unique string id", true);
//use ICStorageElement methods for storing data

//to store configuration-specific information use
ICConfigurationDescription cfg = des.getConfiguration*(...);
ICStorageElement el = cfg.getStorage("unique string id", true);
//use ICStorageElement methods for storing data

//save modifications
mngr.setProjectDescription(project, des);

Hope this helps.

Mikhail

Subject: [cdt-dev] Looking for info on using ICStorgaeElement

Hi,

I'm currently storing some additional private project information in my
own file 
within a project. However, I see that CDT4 has introduced a new project
storage 
format, and it appears that I should be able to use this to store my
information 
instead. However, there is no documentation that I can see on how to do
this.

It seem that I need to use a ICStorageElement, which is obtained from a 
CProjectDescription. I thought that I might be able to cast from a 
ProjectDescription, but that doesn't work.

I found a CProjectDesciptionManager, but that is not accessible to me...

Is there a bugzilla entry that describes the new model? I tried
searching but 
couldn't find anything

Any descriptions or some pointers to code that could get me started
would be great!

Thanks
