[cdt-dev] How to import a project with special build requirements?

[Ivan Popivanov <popivan@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am trying to use CDT (the "Linked Resources" feature) as GUI for a 
project that doesn't use make. The project is quite large and it's split 
into directories. Usually, what you have to do to build is to run a 
script called "build" into a particular directory, rarely in the root.

How to implement that in CDT? Ideally, I will add all folders to the 
project as linked resources. However, I don't know how to setup CDT so 
that each time when I choose to build, it takes the current folder (the 
currently selected folder from the project) and runs "build" inside. For 
example, let's say in CDT I have three folders: dira, dirb and dirc, and 
let's say currently I have selected dirb. I want to be able to somehow 
tell CDT to build this folder only, and to make it run our build script 
inside the real directory. Is that possible?

Alternatively, I can setup each directory as a project but that's an 
overkill. For each project I can specify a command to use to build and 
select a working directory, but can I make the working directory 
selection context sensitive?

Thanks in advance!
