Description Doug Schaefer CLA 2010-08-16 10:39:42 EDT 
Now that we allow for more advanced build behavior, we need a way to store configuration parameters. An example would be the command-line options to CMake or configure.

My proposal is to have IBuilder inherit IHoldsOptions and hook it up just like ITool and IToolChain.

Once that is complete, we'll need a way to override the IBuilder UI, but I'll save that for another bug. For now, setting the options in a template and using them in the build runner will do.

About to commit this. The change was pretty simple. I have made HoldsOption the superclass of Builder and hooked it up to the serialization and load routines. I have also added options as a child for builder in the buildDefinitions schema.
