1.8. DS-5 ARM HWLIBs Project Derived from Make-Based Project

This section takes a makefile-based example project that comes with SoC EDS and converts it to a managed make project. “Managed Make” in Eclipse means that the IDE (DS-5 in this case) takes care of generating and maintaining any Makefiles.

When you use this method, you are able to change the project settings from the GUI.
Note: You cannot automate generic steps, like converting the FPGA SOF file to C object code to be linked into the application.

A managed make project can be compiled from the command line, since there is a makefile. Therefore, automated builds can be done using commands.
