Compiling and Linking

Compiling and cleaning is controlled from the project menu in the C/C++ Perspective.

All artifacts appear in a subdirectory with the configuration name.

Output and errors are reported in a lower pane.

The Project menu in the C/C++ Perspective has items for:

  • Build All
  • Build Project
  • Build Working Set
  • Clean

There is another checkable item called "Build Automatically" which causes a rebuild every time a changed file is saved.

Makefiles, object files, dependency files, and executables all appear in a subdirectory that is named by the configuration name.

Output from the compilation appears in a tab labeled "Console" in the lower pane.

Errors and warnings are parsed out of the output and presented in the "Problems" tab.
