CDT cross project reference building issues [message #663013]

I have 3 projects in my eclipse workspace. 1 project references the other 2 projects. Furthermore, each configuration of the upper project references specific configurations of the referenced projects. These were all setup, for each configuration, in the references under C/C++ General->Paths and Symbols. I specifically chose certain configurations and did NOT choose the active configuration.

The issue I'm seeing is that when I build the upper project, the referenced projects that get built are not the configuration I specified, but instead the currently ACTIVE configuration for the referenced project. This would work fine if the referenced project always had the correct configuration active, but most of the time a different configuration is active in the referenced project when I go to build the top level project. Why is it not building the configuration I specified instead of the active configuration?

Does this have something to do with the fact that I'm using normal makefiles instead of a CDT managed-make setup?

Dear Ryan,

I'm facing the same problem. I do use automatic makefile generation and have the same issue. Did you find out how to solve it? Is there any way to change the configuration prior to building?

Thanks for your help.

Jakob

In the "Project properties" --> "C/C++ General" --> "Paths and Symbols", Select References tab and there you will find which dependent configurations are to be built.
