Build
Improved import workflow for CMake and Meson projects
It's now possible to import your pre-existing, non-Eclipse CMake and Meson projects using the standard Eclipse Smart Import wizard. By using the File -> Import -> Projects from Folder or Archive wizard, the selected directory or archive will be analysed and CMake and Meson projects will be detected. Multiple projects may be imported at once, even nested projects. See Bug 575145.
Debug
Preference for suspend timeout
Previously the suspend timeout was hardcoded to 5 seconds. Now added a preference in GDB preference page under General Behavior for suspend timeout. The default timeout is 10 seconds. See Bug 576291.
API modifications
org.eclipse.tools.templates.ui
org.eclipse.tools.templates.ui.ProjectImportConfigurator
is a new API for easily adding support for CDT project types to the standard Eclipse smart project import wizard. Integrators may use this API to offer smart import functionality by registering implementations for their project types using the platform's org.eclipse.ui.ide.projectConfigurator
extension point. See Bug 575145.
