Description Vivian Kong CLA 2008-08-21 11:12:06 EDT 
This will introduce a conversion wizard that converts existing CDT projects into RDT projects.  The wizard adds a remote nature to the project and allows the service model to be configured.

The icon for the wizard cannot be added to the patch so I'll attach it to this bug instead.

updated patch

Updated patch makes wizard more generic (listing non-CDT projects as candidates for conversion as well)
Comment 4 Chris Recoskie CLA 2008-09-03 15:41:17 EDT 
One problem I see is that the wizard will try to set the indexer for projects that are not CDT projects.

updated patch

This patch allows the table entries to be generated based on a project's natures and therefore we won't add the indexer to non-CDT projects.  When the project nature is not known (e.g. new project creation wizard) it defaults to C & C++ nature (which is the behaviour right now).

Applied to HEAD.  Thanks.
Comment 7 Mike Kucera CLA 2008-09-04 10:34:37 EDT 
Couple comments:

- This is not a new project wizard so perhaps it shouldn't be listed with the rest of the new project wizards. 
- When I right click on a CDT project one of the menu items is "Convert to...", and when I select that I get an error dialog that says "no available converters".
- The hidden RSE project RemoteSystemsTempFiles shows up in the list.

Can you please open separate bugs for these?
