Compiling - Projects

If you created a C/C++ Project and didn't fill in the "Build invocation" page of the New Project Wizard, then the first time you invoke Build Project on the project, you will be using the default "Build Invocation Command" (gmake all). This is typically the command you would issue from a command line to invoke a makefile or other build process (e.g. gmake). The "Build Invocation" can be changed through the Project Properties

This command is issued in the following cases: 

  1. You explicitly choose to build a project 
  2. You save a file that is part of a project that has the automatic build feature turned on. 
After a build is issued the Output is shown in the Output View, and how the output is parsed is configurable by changing the defined Formats

Another option, if Project-level builds are not granular enough, is to identify which makefile to invoke the build on
