It would be useful if the Build Output Window echoed the
working directory in which make is started as it starts.
This will help  sort things out in remote scenarios espceially
during debugging because the working directory a compiler runs in
is recorded in debugging information and becomes part of 
the pathname of files.

What tool collection do you use?
Is your project from existing code?

Comment 2 ivan 2010-02-02 12:40:29 UTC

This RFE is independent of toolchain or kind of project.
Note, I'm only requesting the working directory from which make is started.
Individual compiler stuff can be deduced form that.
