This is true BUT have a look at the discussion on the cdt-dev mailing list and you'll see that it may not be as easy as it seems.... http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/platform-cvs-dev/msg00461.html "Eclipse was designed with the assumption that the project directory is part of the source tree" At least I personnally was discourage by what I discover regarding this "Eclipse Issue". My point of view was like yours: http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/platform-cvs-dev/msg00462.html "I may be wrong but I think eclipse-team simplified a little too much the relationship between a project and the version control system." > > > I am ok with the fact that CDT4 generator should > > > put it's (.project/.cproject) ouput inside source tree. > > > > I'm certainly not, but I'm only the author of the CDT4 generator not a > > CMake developer ;) > > I can assure you that the cmake developers agree with you, cmake must not > create files in the source tree when building out-of-source. > > Wasn't there a way to get the cvs/svn stuff working with the eclipse > generator ? I didn't find one that was acceptable for the time I was willing to spedn on an eventual eclipse patch. Moreover I evaluate the chance for an Eclipse design choice change to be very low since I'm not anything near a recognized Eclipse developer nor contributor :=) Of course this MY OWN point of view. > E.g. by setting up a project in eclipse for the cvs/svn sources and then > additionally loading the cmake generated out-of-source eclipse project ? Yes this work, but it is not as nice as a single project entirely generated by CMake CDT4 generatro You end-up with 2 Eclipse projects one for CVS/SVN handling which is 'handcrafted' from a "Project from CVS" eclipse menu, then the other one for building, executing etc... which is the project generated by CDT4 CMake generator. > > I think a good thing would be to document in the cmake wiki how to set this up > with the cmake generator. I think this was already discussed on the list but this (but I did not dig for it) but I cannot find it on a Wiki page neither on: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:Eclipse nor on: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/Eclipse_CDT4_Generator_Development I'll try to put on the Eclipse_CDT4_Generator_Development unless anyone is faster than me, since I shouldn't be able to do it before the Week-End. -- Erk _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list CMake@cmake.org http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
