Re: [cdt-dev] C++ Compiler and Linker Options

["Eclipse.KBase" <eclipse.kbase@xxxxxxxxx>]

Derek,

I have created the project by importing an existing makefile project. 
The project is a simple wx-widgets hello-world application that compiles 
just fine in its own samples directory from the command-line. However, 
importing the same project in Eclipse doesn't go well because I am not 
able to specify the C++ compiler and linker options that I get from 
wx-config.

Though I see ABSOLUTELY NO option to just paste all compiler options 
given by wx-config and all linker options given by the same in Eclipse, 
I do find Project->Properties->C/C++ General->Paths & Symbols where I 
can specify Include and Library directories (as well as libraries). 
However, when I specify wx libraries there then Eclipse doesn't like wx 
header directories specified in double quotes - it accepts includes only 
when I specify them in angle-brackets. Can you also tell me how I can 
get it to like include directories specified in double quotes?

Regards,
Eclipse Newbie
