I use CMake as a build manager for a C++ project. All my sources are in a src subdirectory, and I created a sibling build directory. Following the directions from https://cmake.org/Wiki/Eclipse_CDT4_Generator, the build commands I use are:
cd build
cmake -G"Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ../src
This creates the .project and .cproject files used to import an existing project in Eclipse. In the IDE, everything seems to work perfectly, except that the make target does not work.
When I click on a build target, the CDT build console opens, but nothing occurs. Also when I click on Project / Clean in the Eclipse dropdown menus, nothing occurs. I checked the commands invoked by the targets, and they are of the form /usr/bin/make -j8, which should work.
Can anyone help me get the make target work ?
An automatic update to CDT just occurred and everything works now. So check for updates I guess.
