# Project Types and Makefiles

When creating a new Intel® C++ project in Eclipse*, Executable, Shared Library, Static Library, or Makefile project types are available for selection.

- Select Makefile Project if the project already includes a makefile.

- Use Executable, Shared Library, or Static Library Project to build a makefile using options assigned from property pages specific to the Intel® C++ Compiler Classic.
