Generating CDT projects files from g++ makefile [message #1234807]

Hi,

I an newbie to CDT, and thrown into a project with 100K lines of C++/C code for linux.

And they have been using cmake, Makefile, and vi for years.

Is there an automated way to generate .settings, .project, and other CDT project files settings from the makefile?

(similar to the way that maven can generate eclipse project files from the command line mvn eclipse:eclipse?)

You can create an Eclipse Makefile project and then use the existing Makefile
http://help.eclipse.org/kepler/topic/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/getting_started/cdt_w_import.htm?cp=9_1_3
Or you can let cmake create the Eclipse project files.

What are the options for cmake generating the eclipse project files and settings?

This is for a large set of existing cmake based projects.
