<p class="MsoNormal">Hi <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">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:
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://cmake.org/Wiki/Eclipse_CDT4_Generator">https://cmake.org/Wiki/Eclipse_CDT4_Generator</a>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is the sole purpose of that generator to create a CDT project from a CMake makefile?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">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. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best regards <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
