3.7.3. Road Map

Importing and debugging a project typically involves several of the following tasks. You do not need to perform these tasks in this order, and you can repeat or omit some tasks, depending on your needs.
  • Import a command-line C/C++ application
  • Import a supporting project
  • Debug a command-line C/C++ application
  • Edit command-line C/C++ application code

When importing a project, the SBT for Eclipse might make some minor changes to your makefile. If the makefile refers to a source file located outside the project directory tree, the SBT for Eclipse treats that file as a linked resource. However, it does not add or remove any source files to or from your makefile.

When you import an application or user library project, the Nios® II SBT for Eclipse allows you to choose Eclipse source management or user source management. Unless your project has an unusual directory structure, choose Eclipse source management, to allow the SBT for Eclipse to automatically maintain your list of source files.

You debug and edit an imported project exactly the same way you debug and edit a project created in Eclipse.
