| <div role="main"><h1>Converting CDT 1.x Projects</h1> |
| |
| <p>How you update your CDT 1.x project to the current CDT project format depends upon whether the |
| project is a Standard Make project or a Managed Make project. For a Standard |
| Make project, see <strong>Convert to C/C++ Project Wizard</strong> below.</p> |
| <h2>Updating a Managed Make Project </h2> |
| |
| <p>For a Managed Make project, the Managed Build system will prompt you to |
| convert your project when it attempts to read the Managed Build project |
| information and discovers that the project needs to be updated. You will be prompted to update the project.</p> |
| <p> <img src="../images/update_managed_build.png" alt="Update Managed Builder dialog box"></p> |
| <p>Click <strong>Yes</strong> and the project will be updated. The updated Managed |
| Build information can no longer be loaded by CDT 1.x or CDT 2.x. Select <strong> |
| No</strong> and the project will not be updated. You will be able to view the |
| Managed Build settings, but no changes will be saved when you close the project |
| or exit Eclipse.</p> |
| |
| <h2>Convert to a C/C++ Project Wizard</h2> |
| |
| <p>Select <strong>File > New > Convert to a C/C++ Project</strong>. If that selection is not available, you can find the instructions for adding it <a href="cdt_t_add_custom_persp.htm">here</a>.</p> |
| <p><img src="../images/file_new_conv.png" alt="File - New - Convert to a C/C++ Project menu selection"></p> |
| |
| <p>From the <strong>Convert to C/C++ Make Project Wizard</strong> select the project you want to convert and click <strong>Finish</strong>.</p> |

| |
| <p><strong>Note: </strong>You may need to manually enable Path Discovery for CDT 1.x Standard Make projects, depending on how your CDT project was configured. |
| See <a href="cdt_t_discovery.htm">Set Discovery Options</a> for details.</p> |
