Build

---

Headless builder can now remove projects from workspace.

There are new two options based on the import options that will be executed before a build: "-remove" /path/to/project - will remove a single project from workspace. "-removeAll" /path/to/projectTree - will remove a tree of projects in this path. Both options are more precedence than the import options. That means if you import a project and remove it or the containing project tree in the same command, the project will not be imported. Otherwise it is possible to combine the options with importing in this way: -importAll /path/to/projectTree -remove<All> /path/to/projectTree/subProject<Tree> This will import a project tree and remove the sub project or sub project tree. See also Bug 573512.

Add verbose option for progress monitor of headless builder.	During operations, such as remove projects, the subtask of a progress monitor has useful information for users. However during a normal build there ends up being lots of output that is of little value. See also Bug 573512.

Build command arguments moved to Behavior tab.	The free form text box to customize build (aka make) arguments has been moved the the Behavior tab and split from the Build command text box. See also Bug 568397.

Terminal

---

Open files and links with Ctrl+Click

When pressing the Ctrl key (Cmd key on mac), the word under the mouse pointer is highlighted with an underline and by clicking it the terminal guesses how to open it: a web link is opened in the configured browser if it can be resolved to a file in the workspace, that file is opened (linux only: the terminal keeps track of the current working directory of the shell to resolve relative paths) otherwise the user is prompted with the open resource dialog, pre-filled with the word See bug 563015.

Code Templates

---

Templates are sorted

When a new source file is created from template, the available suggested templates are sorted in alphabetical order first by template key, then by template name between same content type. E.g. When a new C++ file is created from template it will have few suggested templates grouped into few content types. The most relevant content type group is still at the top. It makes possible to bring at the top of the drop down list custom templates that does not have a key and whose name sorted will be in front of "Default C++ Source template". See Bug 572755

Templates selection persistent	The template selection is persistent. If a different template has been selected than default one from the top of the list, this selection will be recorded. Next time when a new file is created from template with same extension, the previous chosen template will selected by default. See Bug 573204

API modifications

---

org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb

A new method org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.service.IGDBBackend.getDebuggerCommandLineArray() has been added for access to, and customization of, the GDB command line used when launching a debug session. This method should be overridden by extenders in preference to overriding org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.service.GDBBackend.getDebuggerCommandLine() or org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.service.GDBBackend.getGDBCommandLineArray() which are now deprecated. See Bug 572944
