It definitely sounds like an interesting and promising combination. The<br>
one snag I hit when I tried that was that the project I tried to use<br>
through ExternalProject seemed to automatically pick up the toolchain<br>
that I'd specified for the main project. If that's the way it works,<br>
then I'm probably stuck.<br>
<br>
If there's a way to make it not do that, then I probably missed an<br>
option somewhere. I'll have to play around with it some more and see if<br>
I can find a way to make that work.<br>

You should be able to force any values you need into the cache of the sub-projects and make it do whatever you need it to.<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><br>
