Hi Neundorf,
This generator can only be used for generating Nucleus ReadyStart IDE projects. It generates Eclipse CDT project files that use ReadyStart specific plugins and configurations.

Best Regards,
Khurram

does that mean it also works for "normal" Eclipse CDT, or only for ReadyStart ?
If it works for Eclipse in general, I would happily remove the current Eclipse CDT generator (which I wrote).
Do all tests pass using your generator ?
