Can I use gnumake (similar to ANT) scripts to compile soucres? [message #823015]

We are planning to migrate an existing project to Eclipse.

In order not to have to rewrite all existing gnumake scripts we prefer to use them inside Eclipse (as context menus similar to ant/maven).

Is this possible?

Is an additional plugin required?

Is your project Java/C? If it is C, you may get a better answer in CDT. For Java projects, the project gets build automatically by the in-built java compiler depending upon the project settings. If you want to do things beyond the auto-build, you could add any program including your makefile as a builder to the project. Hope this helps.
