<h1>C/C++ Project Properties, Paths and Symbols, Project References</h1>
<p>
User can adjust references among CDT projects.<br>
Unlike Eclipse Common <a href=cdt_u_prop_ref.htm>References page</a>,
current page allows setting references to specific configuration.
</p>
Project references are a powerful way of expressing dependencies between
Build configurations in different projects. Specifically they perform 2 roles:
<ul>
<li>Automatic propogation of <a href="cdt_u_prop_general_exp.htm"><i>Exported Settings</i></a> from one project
to another which depends on it</li>
<li>Build, if necessary, referenced projects before dependent project</li>
</ul>
<p>
Unlike the Eclipse Common <a href=cdt_u_prop_ref.htm>References page</a>,
this page allows setting references to specific configurations.
<p> <b>Since CDT 7</b> this functionality has been improved:
<ul>
<li>
<b>Referenced projects are ordered</b><p> and this order can be changed using the buttons provided.
Referenced projects are built in the order listed in the dialog, and the order is used in the build for setting
up the Include paths and Library link lines.
</li>
<li>
<b>Can reference another configuration in the same project</b><p>It's allowed to reference another configuration
in the same project.
</li>
<li>
<b>Referenced projects which don't exist in the workspace are shown in gray.</b>
</li>
</ul>
