I'm taking embedded courses in school and we are using CDT. I come from
a Java background and I find using 'make' to be a pain. Has anyone
looked at skipping make altogether to do builds. Does gcc expose a
compiler api that could be used from JNA? Or could the command line be
wrapped?

wdyt?

Have you tried managed builds? In CDT 4.0, if you create an Executable
project, it'll build automatically without Makefiles. If are in CDT 3.x,
create a Managed Builder project.

Cheers,
Doug.

Yes, I'm using CDT 4 and I have tried using the Managed Builder briefly. My understanding is that it produces and runs
makefiles that it manages. Is that not correct? Does it run the compiler/linker directly?

Depends on the toolchain. But either way, it is hidden from you.

DOug.
