Eclipse C / C ++ CDT仅生成一个文件

Question

I'm doing a C++ project with eclipse CDT but It takes a lot of time building all the source files.

I'd prefer just build the one source file which I'm working with until it's correct and later go ahead to the next source file. But all the options I have seen of eclipse (Make project and Build all), work over all the source files of the project.

Is there any easy way to build just one or two source files in eclipse CDT?

Thank you!

Answer 1

It was much easier than expected.

1. Deselect Project -> Build Automatically
2. Right click on the file you want to build
3. Click on Build Selected File(s) .

Answer 2

If you're using makefile project. Simply add '-jn' (n specifies the concurrent job number) into your make parameter.

open 'project properties' -> 'C/C++ Build' -> 'Behavior'(page label) -> 'Build (incremental build'(edit box)

eg change it to '-j 3 all', will tell make to compile 3 files at same time.

Of course, make will detect file dependencies to decide whether the files can be compiled at same time.
