This is the recommend options source for Tornado projects.
When this options source is used:
- C/C++test provides a special reader to extract build configuration lists—as well as compiling and linking options—from Tornado project files.
- You specify the path to the Tornado project file and C++test reads it to find build configurations.
- After you choose one of these build configurations, C++test will have immediate access to the appropriate compilation/linking options.
- C/C++test looks for Tornado project file updates and re-reads it when needed; this way, you can work with the Tornado environment and C++test simultaneously and always have up-to-date options.
This options source is automatically set when you import Tornado projects into the C++test workspace using the Tornado project import wizard (see Using the Tornado Import Wizard).
To use this options source, select Options source> Use options from Wind River Tornado project in the C++test Properties panel’s Build Settings page (to access this, right-click the project node, choose Properties from the shortcut menu, then select Parasoft> C/C++test> Build Settings in the left pane).
Be sure to specify the real linker executable name for the chosen compiler family (e.g., "ldsimpc" for wregcs-2.9/VxSim) in the C/C++test Properties panel’s Build Settings> Compiler settings> Linker editor because the linking options extracted from a Tornado project file are prepared to be passed directly to the linker.
