Implemented by Chad Elliott (elliott_c@ociweb.com). - A single tool (MPC) can be used to generate tool specific input (i.e. -Makefile, dsp, vcproj, etc). The generator takes platform and building -tool generic files (mpc files) as input which describe basic information -needed to generate a "project" file for various build tools. These tools -include Make, NMake, Visual C++ 6, Visual C++ 7, etc. - -One of the many unique and useful features of the Makefile, Project and -Workspace Creator is that the project definition files can employ the idea -of inheritance. This feature allows a user to set up a basic base project -(mpb file) that can contain information that is applicable to all -sub-projects.
