Research and implement a file "discovery" facility for user and system files required during parsing of the target application. The proposed "discovery" facility logic is structured as a "wizard", and it flows as follows: [i] Ask the user to provide basic information to facilitate discovery. The choices include: make -n output, make output, makefile.in (used by auto* configure tools), binary (compiled with -g option) [ii] Ask the user to provide a list of locations (i.e. Path) where to search for missing files [iii[ Attempt to locate the list of missing files during the parsing phase [iv] Ask the user to review the list of required files, and to manually change these or add to the list, if necessary.
fixed: - Discovery Wizard integrated into Create New Project wizard - Discovery Wizard invoked from project explorer context menu
