Eclipse will not stop building after the first error [message #1740753]

Eclipse will not stop building after the first error when building all configurations for an ARM Gnu C project. I want eclipse to stop after the first error and don't proceed to the next build configuration when I trigger "build all" command from windows cmd.

If your build is not stopping on first error it is probably because make is being run with -k switch.

You can turn the setting on/off in CDT if you open Project Properties -> C/C++ Build -> Behavior tab, and check "Stop on first build error"

Thank you for your reply, However I'm triggering the build from cmd by eclipse command line options. Is there a solution for that from the CMD or setting this to be permanent in the work space it self?

Hi, your use case sounds like a patch is needed to CDT. It could be that the CDT command line build application never added support for make without -k.
