Evaluation of CDT for EFS support, esp. remote file system
CDT has no support for EFS at all. Even its support for locally linked resources are quite limited. For example, the following bugs are already identified:
- 136136 Build directory should not be restricted to workspace
- 70491 Invalid Include Path when "Link to Folder in the Filesystem"
And, also reference http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/cdt-dev/msg03059.html for the discussion of linked resources.
Identified Problems
- CDT Project Creation/Conversion Wizard does not support EFS
- Bug 136136 restricts the build directory to workspace
- Add build server property to the build property tab and modify the code to launch build command on remote machine when appropriate
- CDT Indexer and CDT ManagedMake need further investigations
