I used to use Eclipse for coding with CMake and the what worked the
best for me was the following (This assumes you are on Unix/Linux/OSX).
Start in "Project A". Create a directory "Build". Have CMake generate
"Makefiles" using "Build" as the build directory.
Start up Eclipse. Create a new "Existing Makefile" project and during
the setup of that project you need to adjust the build command to
"make -C ${ProjDirPath}/Build VERBOSE=1" which tells Eclipse to run
make but use your already created Build directory with your makefiles.
Then Eclipse will show you the complete "file system" of Project A,
VCS works, builds work (inside AND outside of Eclipse). The only
downside is you get .project/.cproject in your Project A directory
which you can have VCS easily ignore with a few config files. The
procedure is described on the CMake wiki here
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:Eclipse_UNIX_Tutorial Look for
"Option 2". THere are screen shots to help you through the setup.
Thanks Mike-
I gave this a go and I can definitely build and see all my source,
however Eclipse by default was very confused about where to find the
source. I read on the tutorial that when you run with VERBOSE=1
Eclipse should be capable of picking up all the include directories,
however when I browse to Project Properties -> C/C++ General -> Paths
and Symbols nothing was showing up, so pretty much everything in my
source code was red. I discovered to get this working you need to go
to Project Properties -> C/C++ General -> Preprocessor Includes, and
on the Providers tab enable "CDT GCC Build Output Parser" and "CDT GCC
Built-in Compiler Settings". Afterward doing a clean/build, and
re-index, and everything was resolving as expected.
Actually I should follow this up, while the above allowed me to resolve
all of the system includes, Eclipse does not seem to be discovering the
includes from entries like "include_directories(...)", can anyone
confirm that their Eclipse is picking this up automatically? And/or
where I should see these entries in the Eclipse project properties? I
can certainly manually add them, but I'd prefer not to.
Thanks,
David
