Hello,

I'm new to eclipse. One of my design requirements is the ability to generate multiple executables in a single CPP project - which forces me to use a custom makefile.

My makefile generates the desired executables as expected, which is good. Unfortunately, eclipse doesn't know where to find these executables. Thus, when I click the little green play button, I get an error message stating "Launch Failed. Binary not found." Eclipse is just looking in the wrong place. How can I specify the build destination so eclipse can find the proper executables?

Thanks!
