<h3 class="section">14.1 Customizing your Projects</h3>
<p><a name="index-project-627"></a>
This section describes some possible ways to customize your projects when
working in a cross environment. For more details on the project capabilities,
see <a href="Project-Handling.html#Project-Handling">Project Handling</a>.
<p>When using the project editor to modify the project's properties, two
areas are particularly relevant to cross environments:
<code>Cross environment</code> part of the <code>General</code> page, and
<code>Toolchains</code> part of the <code>Languages</code> page.
<p>In the <code>Toolchains</code> section, you will typically either scan your system
to display found toolchains, and select the one corresponding to your cross
environment or use the Add button and manually select the desired cross
environment.
<p>If needed, you can also modify manually some of the tools defined in this
toolchain in the <code>Details</code> part of the <code>Languages</code> page.
<p>For example, assuming you have an Ada project, and using a powerpc VxWorks
configuration. Hitting the scan button, you should see the toolchain
<code>powerpc-wrs-vxworks</code> appearing in the <code>Toolchains</code> section.
Selecting this toolchain will change the <code>Details</code> part, displaying the
relevant tools (e.g. <i>Gnatls</i> to
<code>powerpc-wrs-vxworks-gnatls</code> and <i>Debugger</i> to
<code>powerpc-wrs-vxworks-gdb</code> <small class="dots">...</small>).
<p>The list of toolchains and their default values that can be selected when using
the Add button can be modified via a custom xml file. See
<a href="Customizing-and-Extending-GPS.html#Customizing-and-Extending-GPS">Customizing and Extending GPS</a> and in particular
<a href="Toolchains-customization.html#Toolchains-customization">Toolchains customization</a> for further information.
<p>If you are using an alternative run time, e.g. a <i>soft float</i> run time,
you need to add the option <code>--RTS=soft-float</code> to the <i>Gnatls</i>
property, e.g: <code>powerpc-wrs-vxworks-gnatls --RTS=soft-float</code>, and
add this same option to the <i>Make</i> switches in the switch editor.
See <a href="Switches.html#Switches">Switches</a> for more details on the switch editor.
<p>To modify your project to support configurations such as multiple targets,
or multiple hosts, you can create scenario variables, and modify the setting
of the Toolchains parameters based on the value of these variables. See
<a href="Scenarios-and-Configuration-Variables.html#Scenarios-and-Configuration-Variables">Scenarios and Configuration Variables</a> for more information on these
variables.
<p>For example, you may want to create a variable called <code>Target</code> to handle
the different kind of targets handled in your project:
<dl>
<dt><b>Target</b><dd> Native, Embedded
<br><dt><b>Target</b><dd> Native, PowerPC, M68K
</dl>
<p>Similarly, you may define a <code>Board</code> variable listing the different
boards used in your environment and change the <i>Program host</i> and <i>Protocol</i>
settings accordingly.
<p>In some cases, it is useful to provide a different body file for a given
package (e.g. to handle target specific differences). A possible approach
in this case is to use a configuration variable (e.g. called <code>TARGET</code>),
and specify a different naming scheme for this body file (in the project
properties, <code>Naming</code> tab), based on the value of <code>TARGET</code>.
