The downside of Option #2 is that Eclipse will end up putting the .project and .cproject files in your source directory which some folks did not like, which is why they wrote the Eclise CDT generator. For me, Option #2 is worth the couple of downsides.

<disclaimer> I also wrote the Wiki entry for option #2 so I am partial to it.</disclaimer>

If you are using CMake with Eclipse you might want to have a look at <http://cmakeed.sourceforge.net >. If you _do_ use CMakeEd, please do post feedback to the CMakeEd forums on Sourceforge letting us know if you find it useful or not.

<disclaimer-2>I helped write CMakeEd</disclaimer-2>

Hi Mike,
thanks for your fast reply! After setting everything according to Option #2,
further cmake calls wont overwrite my personal settings. I even added
"A Make Target To Run CMake" which works fine as well!

Thanks again, it solved my problem and you made my day :)

Im sorry i didnt find the wiki-page on my own and had to bother,
i just found the "Option #1 Eclipse CDT4 Generator <http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/Eclipse_CDT4_Generator >" via google search.
Next time i will use the wiki-page search!

Kind regards,
Peter Kluger

You may want to try option #2 from the following page:

This would solve your problem as the .project and .cproject files are
never actually generated. It is up to you to generate those files. But
this means that you can customize the project in any way you would
like and CMake will never mess with those files.

 I personally use this technique on a daily basis and it seems to
work very well.

Hi to all,

i recently start using eclipse in our project and am very happy how
it works with the CMake Eclipse CDT 4.0 generator.
Unfortunately, every time i recall cmake it writes the .project
(+.cproject) file for eclipse and overwrites my personal settings
within that file prior set,
like when i set extra make parameters (../gmake -j X -k).
It is kind of annoying since i have to call it every now and then
and must "reset" those settings.
I thought about writing my own script which is called after cmake
and retains those settings but i figured it could be something cmake
does.
Maybe i overlooked a special flag i must set for cmake to keep
certain settings in the project file if it already exsists
but i haven't found anything related to my problem in the internetz.
You could discuss if its something, eclipse shouldnt store in the
project file
to begin with, but i would like to have a "workaround". Any help
would be appreciated and thank you in advanced.
