Create empty project from commandline (.project and .cproject) missing [message #1016432]

Hello everyno,

I have just simple question,

My OS is: Fedora 18.

I would like to import project over command line to eclipse

My project is in directory ~/work/firstproject which were never imported into eclipse yet.

Project has directory structure like:
src/<code>.c
src/Makefile.am
Makefile.am
configure.ac

My workspace is ~/workspace

I created file ~/workspace/firstproject

I call command:
eclipse -nosplash -application org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.core.headlessbuild -import ~/work/firstprojec -build all -cleanBuild all

Project: file:/home/stone/work/firstProject can't be found!

It seems that .cproject and .project files are missing.
Can it be generated automatically?

How?

Best regards
Petr

You have to create and setup the project within the Eclipse IDE firstly. Then .project and .cproject will be automatically created.

One more question.

It seems that .project and .cproject can not be generated automatically, ok?
But when I have already build up project with make program
most of the files have been generated like *.o, *.la, binaries, libraries, etc.
Is there any filter in eclipse which could ignore that files?

Thank you in advance
Petr

Hi Petr,

I am also trying to do the same thing. But I couldn't get anything.

Were you able to generate the .cproject and .project for C, C++ existing make file code?

Regards,
Vikky
