Summary0008358: native/cross compiler options might show the cmake variable names
DescriptionWhen configuring a project the first time, I can now choose between "native", "native, specify compiler", "cross with toolchain file" and "cross, specify stuff".
That's very nice :-)

But some nitpicking:
The lineedit don't have tooltips. Either tooltips could explain something or the tooltips could show which variable this represent.

In the Find Program/Library/Include section the default should be "Search only in Target root" for libraries and includes, and "search only in native system" for programs.

Target root can also be a list of directories.

I think it would be nice to give a hint that not all three (C, C++, Fortran) compilers must be specified.
Maybe you could also add some logic so that when the first of the three compilers is selected, it checks automatically in the same directory for the other two compilers ?

The "Version" and "Processor" entries should be marked as optional.

Maybe you can make "Operating System" an editable combo box and put all/the most common choices already in that box ?
Most common should be:
eCos (maybe)
Generic
Linux
Windows
