Eclipse CDT，如何编译单个C ++文件？

Question

I am trying to compile a single file. The project has got an external make-file. I have turned off "Build Automatically". Right click on the file, I do see "Build selected File(s)" context menu, but it is disabled (grayed out).

Would appreciate any help!

Answer 1

Did you create the project as a Makefile project?

Open the Makefile in the editor and then select the Outline window (should be on the right). If its not visible open it using menu: Window -> Show View -> Outline . While you're there make sure the Make Target view is open with menu: Window ->Show View -> Make Target .

In the Outline window you should see the Makefile symbols and targets listed. Select the targets you want to use (like all and clean ), right click them, then add them to the Make Target window.

Once they appear in the Make Target window, just double-click on them to invoke make .

Outline window of Makefile :

Make Target window.
