Hi David, Generation of project files in CMake is a one-way process. CMake is not able to edit its own input (CMakeLists.txt). To update a project managed by CMake, you should update CMakeLists.txt manually and regenerate your CDT project.

Hi I want to build an Eclipse CDT (C++) project on Linux that can be maintained using CMake. I have seen the notes on the Eclipse CDT4 Generator here: https://cmake.org/Wiki/Eclipse_CDT4_Generator Is the sole purpose of that generator to create a CDT project from a CMake makefile? Or, having run the generator, will CDT continue to maintain the project with CMake, adding new source files to CMakeLists.txt as required? This is what I want to achieve, so that my project can be built by another IDE, that understands CMake but not CDT, at any time. Best regards David
