[cdt-dev] custom toolchains and example projects

["Mike Frysinger" <vapier.adi@xxxxxxxxx>]

i've been following the MBS doc for creating your own toolchain plugin:
http://help.eclipse.org/help33/topic/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.isv/guide/mbs/extensibilityGuide/Managed_Build_Extensibility.html

the toolchain i'm integrating is simply a gcc cross-compiler, so ive
been using the org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.gnu.ui stuff a lot as a
basis.

i'm at the point where the toolchain can be selected in the project
wizard, so i'm testing it with the example projects that come with the
default cdt stuff.  the weird thing is that i cant seem to get my
toolchain to show up in the supported list for some projects.  from
comparing my toolchain to the Linux GCC toolchain definition, i cant
seem to find the differences that'd account for this.  i'm providing
configurations for:
 org.eclipse.cdt.build.core.buildArtefactType.exe
 org.eclipse.cdt.build.core.buildArtefactType.sharedLib
 org.eclipse.cdt.build.core.buildArtefactType.staticLib

for example, the default projects that cdt provides:
- Executable (works)
    - TestProjectWithExtraPages (works)
    - TestWidgetsLabel (works)
    - Hello World C++ (fails)
    - Hello World ANSI C (works)
    - Empty Project (fails)
- Shared Library (works)
- Static Library (works)
- Makefile project (works)
    - Hello World C++ (fails)
