Description Missing name CLA 2010-12-19 10:16:11 EST 
It would we a nice feature if the compiler tool names could be defined on global level (Window -> Preferences -> C/C++) instead on project level only.

Currently, I use cygwin's mingw cross compiler with a name something like i686-w64-mingw32-g++ and each time I create a new project I must change it in project settings.

This request is similar to bug 162091. I think if we could define and customize a configuration on workspace level that would do it.
