Question

I have a native CMake project, and I want to use the Eclipse IDE with it so that it makes my development easier by providing auto-complete and and other features. I can\'t seem

Answer 1

Do the follows:

mkdir debug (or release, or any other name)

cd debug
cmake -G "Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_ECLIPSE_GENERATE_SOURCE_PROJECT=TRUE -DCMAKE_ECLIPSE_MAKE_ARGUMENTS=-j3 -DCMAKE_ECLIPSE_VERSION=4.1 ../

Make sure you set the right Eclipse version

Then open the folder from Eclipse (Open Projects)
