Dependency checking

Hello,

I am looking to create a build environment such that I can build from the
command line or the IDE using QNX Momentics 2.2.0 (QNX Neutrino v6.3).

I have generated a top-level makefile which, when used with the
IDE-generated
makefiles (recursive) allows me to specify the build type (clean, all,
rebuild), the
target cpu and the build variant (release/debug).

I have two outstanding issues:

  1. I’d like to import an entire source code directory (many
    projects/libraries)
    in a single step. Is this possible?

  2. The IDE-generated makefiles appear to have minimal support for
    dependency checking. The qcc compiler (based on gcc 2.95) does not have
    the -M (or -MD) option, and even if it did, I’m not sure I could integrate
    it
    with the IDE-generated makefiles.

My goal is to be able to check out an entire source code tree, build using
make (from the command-line), and have the ability to bring up the IDE if
needed
for debugging/rebuilding.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Tom Labno

Check out
http://www.eclipse-plugins.info/eclipse/plugins.jsp?category=Code+mngt&pager.offset=40&firstItem=41,
“Multi Project Import/Export”. We intend on using a modified version of
this plugin to import our development environment to produce our releases.

I’m not sure how you’d resolve the apparent lack of dependency checking
under Momentics Pro.
