Compiling one compile unit [message #153516]

Is there any way in a managed make project to compile just one compile
unit, i.e., one .cpp file? This would really be handy. (Any IDE should
be able to do this.)

Would creating a custom make target do this? I dunno - I've never tried.

But there is no way to do that in a managed project is there? (i.e to
execute "make path/file.o" from the IDE ) I'm greatly interested in the
answer too.

thanks.

Apparently, the answer is no.

In the managed build system extensibility doc (in the cdt help doc) it talks

2.1.6 Building a Configuration
The user can build projects from within the Eclipse/CDT user interface, or
from a command line that can be placed in a batch/script file.
The user can build the currently active configuration, or select a different
set of configurations to build.
The user can rebuild an individual resource separate from building the
entire project.

But from "select a different set" on is marked in red which indicates that
it hasn't been implemented yet. I assume that a similar issue is tracked in
bugzilla as not yet implemented, but I haven't dug thru that stuff yet.
