[SOLVED] Importing a CMake project into Eclipse CDT

Issue

I have a native CMake project, and I want to use the Eclipse IDE with it so that it makes my development easier by providing auto-complete and and other features. I can't seem to find how to import the a CMake project in Eclipse.

PS: I am open for suggestions for other IDE's that work well with CMake.

Solution

KDevelop is an awesome IDE with great CMake support.

As for Eclipse - run this:

cd <project_dir>
cmake -G "Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" ./

This will produce Eclipse project for you.
