+As you can see in Figure 12, there are two MBS wizards, one for C projects and one for C++. These
+wizards ultimately inherit some of their behaviour from the generic
+wizards provided by the CDT's core UI. There are several wizard pages that always appear in the MBS wizard, which allow the user to select the project name, project location, and MBS project type for their project. The wizards defer to the MBSCustomPageManager to handle any custom pages that might be present in the system.</P>

+<P><BR>The MBSCustomPageManager class is the main entry point to the system. It is responsible for loading all of the extensions which provide custom wizard pages, and storing that data for later use by the wizard. It keeps a list of records of these pages (MBSCustomPageData) which act as a repository for everything that needs to be known about the page, including what circumstances it should be shown under, and what actual IWizardPage should be shown when the page is displayed.<BR>
+<BR>For convenience, there is an abstract base class (MBSCustomPage) which ISVs can subclass to get the most commonly desired behaviour from their pages. Most notably, the provided implementation contained in this class consults the MBSCustomPageManager to determine what wizard pages appear before and after the page, which is necessary to ensure that all custom pages in the system are displayed when they should be.<BR>

+<P class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="mso-bookmark:_Toc526070826">It would
+also be problematic as certain custom pages would rely on the selected
+project type or toolchain, and with a reordering mechanism, ISVs would
+have to be careful to not try to put such pages ahead of the page on
+which that data is selected.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun:yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>If
+a developer were reordering pages that they themselves did not create,

<p>Tool integrators may require that a plugin contain all the build configurations before projects are loaded. Use of this interface insures that a plugin will have access to build configurations before project inforamation is loaded in the workbench. Two methods can be used to access configuration information just after build definitions have been loaded and then again after the build definitions have been resolved. Added as enhancement to <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=123275">bug 123275</a>. </p>
