How to configure Eclipse CDT for cmake?

Question

How to configure Eclipse \"Helios\" with plugin CDT for cmake?

cmake all 
CMake Error: The source directory \"D:/javaworkspace/workspace/Planner/Debug/all\"          


        

Answer 1

Whatever method I have used the external includes has not been indexed.

This is because CMAKE used the "response files" which hides all includes inside those files, instead use it directly (-IPATH_TO_SOME_DIR)

To disable the "response file" I have used following commands:

SET(CMAKE_CXX_USE_RESPONSE_FILE_FOR_INCLUDES NO)
SET(CMAKE_C_USE_RESPONSE_FILE_FOR_INCLUDES NO)

To force the CMAKE to show gcc/g++ execution I have modified the make build target to "all VERBOSE=1". Note that this is not needed when you are using cmake4eclipse.

I have eclipse in version 2018-12 (4.10.0) with CDT in version 9.6.
