TrevK,

You make a good point, but for large projects regenerate cmake profiles could
become prohibitive for each rebuilding. Perhaps, adding an additional entry on
the wiki page explaining your idea is the best choice.

cheers,

You are correct in the sense that an external build is not
_technically_ required because make should pick up the changes to the
CMakeLists.txt file and rerun cmake, then make.
  What happens (probably because I am not using CMake completely
correctly) is that sometimes I want to blow away the "Build" directory
entirely (CVS operations, cleaning the build out, etc, etc) and then
invoke the initial cmake from Eclipse. Having this "external tool" is
handy in the case. I will try to update the wiki to reflect this idea.
     What I would like to have is a Terminal integration inside
eclipse that way I do not need to go out to an external terminal.

On a slightly similar topic I tried the Eclipse + CDT + MinGW that
Doug Schaefer put together for windows. The first glaring omission was
the CVS plugin that usually ships with Eclipse. The other "omission"
was the CMakeEd plugin for Eclipse. Other than that the eclipse distro
looks pretty good.
