Where is the Makefile generated by the Eclipse CDT?

I've built a hello world C++ projec开发者_JS百科t with Eclipse(helios) CDT. It compiled fine. But I would like to take a look at the Makefile CDT generated. I can't find it in project folder/debug/release folders or in the src folders. Where can I find this Makefile?

On Windows,

Click your project, go to menu project -> properties, select Tool Chain Editor then select in Current Builder Gnu Make Builder.

Build a target now generate makefile.

http://help.eclipse.org/helios/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.cdt.doc.user%2Freference%2Fcdt_u_prop_build_toolchain.htm

If you use the default setttings with current builder = CDT internal builder, there is no make file. if you select current builder = GNU make, you will see the makefile in the debug folder.

The only thing I can think of is that the makefile isn't created. Click your project, go to menu project -> properties, select C/C++ Build in the left pane, and make sure the Generate Makefiles automatically checkbox is checked.

By default you should have [workspace]/[project folder]/Debug/makefile. Have you made any changes to the default environment?

Here's the HelloWorld sample project makefile from a Helios (windows/cygwin) installation:
