<p>Building projects consists of a new abld-based build system that wraps build functionality around existing SDK build tools that invoke <span class="code">makmake</span> commands (e.g. <span class="code">bldmake bldfiles</span> and <span class="code">abld build</span>).</p> |

<p> The plug-ins provide extra functionality to set up suitable build configurations for Symbian OS C++ projects. The initial selection of a build configuration is done when you create a project, as described in <a href="../CreatingNewProjects.html">Creating New Projects</a>. You can later <a href="prj_set_build_tgt.htm">change</a> the Active Build Configuration. The Build Configurations also provides a command (<b>Project > <a href="../../reference/menus/build_all_targets.htm">Build All Configurations</a></b>) to build all the selected build configurations in a batch.</p> |

<p> Building Symbian OS C++ projects can involve the use of Symbian OS specific tools, such as the Symbian OS resource compiler. For detailed information on such tools, see the documentation for the SDK that you are using.</p> |

<p>When performing a build, output is displayed in the Console window. If you do not want to clear the console before each build you need to uncheck the option <span class="code">Always clear console before building</span> in the Build Console panel. This option is enabled by default. You can access this panel by selecting <b>Window > Preferences > C/C++ ><img src="../../images/command_link.png" width="16" height="12"> <a class="command-link" href='javascript:executeCommand("org.eclipse.ui.window.preferences(preferencePageId=org.eclipse.cdt.ui.preferneces.CBuildConsolePreferernces)")'> Build Console</a></b> preference panel (figure 2).</p>

<p>Not clearing the console can be useful when you are performing multiple builds, such as a regular project build, building a project package (.pkg) file, and building a ROM image. For example, if you do not clear the console before each build, then a subsequent build will not overwrite information from a previous build.</p> |
