Tool Chains A tool chain is a set of tools (compiler, linker, and assembler) used to build a project. A tool chain also allows for compiler options to be chosen that are specific to the compiler. For example, there are different compiler options available for the "Remote XL C/C++ Tool Chain" than there are for the "Remote Linux GCC Tool Chain". Compiler options can be set after project creation by right-clicking on the project in the Project Explorer view and choosing C/C++ Build -> Settings.

The tool chains that are available for your project depend on the connection that was chosen.

Available tool chains for POWER Linux connections: Remote XL C/C++ Tool Chain, Remote Linux GCC Tool Chain
Available tool chains for AIX connections: Remote XL C/C++ Tool Chain
