| |
| <p> |
| While creating CDT project project, you need to select its type. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <img src="../images/cdt_select_type.png" alt="Select project type"> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>There can be the following types: |
| <ul> |
| <li>Executable - makefile is generated automatically |
| <li>Shared library - makefile is generated automatically |
| <li>Static library - makefile is generated automatically |
| <li>Several specific types marked with rhombuses - makefile is generated automatically |
| <li>Makefile project - requires user's makefile; output type depends of makefile contents. |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p> |
| By default, this dialog displays only the project types |
| that are buildable on the system on which Eclipse is running. |
| You can view all installed project types by unchecking the |
| <strong>Show Project Types and toolchains only if they are supported on the platform</strong> box. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Some project types (Executable and Makefile, in our case) can contain one or more templates |
| (marked by disk). If you select template belonging to some project type, project of such type |
| (executable, in our case) will be created, and additional template-specific source code will |
| be generated. |
