<h1>Multi-Configuration Edit preferences</h1>
|
|
13 |
|
|
14 |
<p>Since CDT 5.0, user is able to edit properties for
|
|
15 |
multiple project configurations simultaneously.</p>
|
|
16 |
<p>Either all configuations or some of them can be selected.</p>
|
|
17 |
<p>But, then we deal with string list property values,
|
|
18 |
it is not obvious how to concatenate them, if they differ.</p>

<dt>String list Display Mode</dt>
|
|
24 |
<dd>Specifies how values will be shown.<br>
|
|
25 |
There are 2 options: conjunction or disjunction.
|
|
26 |
<ul>
|
|
27 |
<li><b>Conjunction</b> shows common elements only, so if 1st configuration has
|
|
28 |
value <A, B, C> and 2nd configuration has <B, C, D>, <B, C> will be shown.
|
|
29 |
<li><b>Disjunction</b> shows all existing elements except doubles, so if 1st configuration has
|
|
30 |
value <A, B, C> and 2nd configuration has <B, C, D>, <A, B, C, D> will be shown.
|
|
31 |
</ul>
|
|
32 |
Note that Display mode can be changed directly on each tab which deals with string lists.
|
|
33 |
Result is immediate: data on the tab refereshed according to selected mode.<br>
|
|
34 |
</dd>
|
|
35 |
<dt>String list Write Mode</dt>
|
|
36 |
<dd>Specifies how values will be saved.<br>
|
|
37 |
There are 2 options: modify or replace.
|
|
38 |
<ul>
|
|
39 |
<li><b>Modify mode</b> adds, changes or removes elements affected by user's actions.
|
|
40 |
Elements which were not touched by user are left unchanged.<br>
|
|
41 |
Example: cfg1 has <A, B, C>; cfg2 has <B, C, D>.<br>
|
|
42 |
User removed B and added F.<br>
|
|
43 |
Result: cfg1 has <A, C, F>; cfg2 has <C, D, F>.
|
|
44 |
<li><b>Replace mode</b> puts currently visible elements to all configurations.
|
|
45 |
Old contents will be lost.<br>
|
|
46 |
Example: cfg1 has <A, B, C>; cfg2 has <B, C, D>.<br>
|
|
47 |
Visible list depends of Display mode: <B, C> or <A, B, C, D>.<br>
|
|
48 |
User removed B and added F.<br>
|
|
49 |
Result: both cfgs will contain either <C, F> or <A, C, D, F> depending of Display mode.
|
|
50 |
</ul>
|
|
51 |
Note that Write mode can be changed directly on each tab which deals with string lists.<br>
