Note: Some of the contents of this page are out of date, however it serves a useful reference with pointers for the CDT Managed Build System (MBS).

How a tool-chain integrator integrates into the MBS is documented in the CDT Plug-in Developer Guide > Programmer's Guide > Managed Build System Extensibility Document (see online here).

The Design document for the MBS in CDT 2.0, CDT 3.0 and CDT 4.0 is contained in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=68232. That bugzilla also contains an attachment, https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/attachment.cgi?id=81648, that describes the items from the design document that have not yet been implemented.
