I've seen a few comments in this, and other newsgroups, referring to a
'headless' Eclipse/CDT. I assume this means Eclipse without the GUI,
and I think the context was to build projects in a batch mode.

1. Is this correct
2. How do I use it?

Thanks,

Isn't it just to invoke 'make'?
Straight forward for standard make projects.
For managed make, you need to invoke make from the configuration
subdirectory, e.g. "Debug".

It's not quite that simple. If you have a 'clean' project (for example,
checked stuff out of CVS), then the Debug directory doesn't exist. You
need Eclipse to generate the Debug/Release directory and make files first...

Hi Derek,

it is in fact possible to extend eclipse so that it will run a different
application than a workbench. There is, for example, an entry point to build
plug-ins in headless mode.

There is however no application entry point to run C/C++ builds - until you
make one :-)
