problem of using eclipse

[dophine]

Hi all,

there is a big project which consists of different folders and makefile. I want to build just part of the project using eclipse since every time I build is to build the whole project.
Is there anyone knowing how to do?

Usually, only the out-of-date parts are rebuilt... I think.

Since the project can be generated a few exe files, I just want to generate one of them.

Can you not write your own make file?

Or if you are using a build tool, you should be able to create a project using just the files you are interested in.

yes. there is a makefile for that exe. however, I don't know how to call that particular makefile.

Can't you just use the make utility?

[code=c]
make MyMakeFile
[/code]

MyMakeFile is refering to ?

I can build the exe/bin file in unix by calling make release in the directory where I am interested. however, I don't know how to do in eclispe. I try to fill "release" in the "make target". but it said no rule to make 'release'.
