Suppose you followed the steps in the previous section and converted your Standard Make project to give it a QNX nature.
You must now use the Properties dialog to make your project into a working QNX project.
To make the project into a working QNX project:
- In the Project Explorer view, right-click your project and select Properties from the
context menu.
- In the left pane, select QNX C/C++ Project.
- Specify the properties you want, using the available tabs:
-
Options
- See the section "Options tab."
-
Build Variants
- See the section "Build Variants tab."
-
General
- In the Installation directory field, you can specify the destination directory
(e.g., bin) for the output binary you're building. For more information, see the
Conventions for Recursive Makefiles and Directories chapter
in the QNX Neutrino Programmer's Guide.
In the Target base name field, you can specify your binary's base name, which is the name without any prefixes or
suffixes. By default, the IDE uses your project name as the executable's base name. For example, if your
project is called Test_1, then a debug version of your executable would be called Test_1_g
by default.
In Use file name, enter the name of the file containing your executable's usage message.
For details about usage messages, see the entry for
usemsg
in the Utilities Reference.

- When you've finished specifying the options you want, click Apply, then OK.
The conversion process is now complete.
