howto: creating custom platform for VC++ projects?

[Jordi Vilar]

Hi,

Is there a way to create a new fully customized target for VC++
projects in VS .NET 2003? The idea is to add support for new
compilers, so you can compile the same project with different
compilers (maybe crosscompilers for other platforms) within the VS
IDE.

I assume that I need to deveop a VS add-in in order to control the
compiler and linker invokations and create the settings dialogs, but
I'm totally lost and I don't know where to start from!

Thanks in advance,

Jordi Vilar
