CMake is not officially supported by the QNX SDP toolchain, but we do support importing makefiles.

If you want to import CMake projects into Momentics IDE, the following instructions work on Linux-based Host OS, i.e. Ubuntu.

You can use the attached script (qnx.nto.toolchain.cmake) to generate the appropriate CMake files (i.e. Makefile, etc).

$ cd /your-path/work-dir-with-source-files
$ cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/your-path/qnx.nto.toolchain.cmake

Afterward, you can import "/your-path/work-dir-with-source-files" into QNX Momentics IDE (Linux-based Host OS).

1. Switch to C/C++ perspective view
2. Click "File" -> "Import..."
3. Select "Existing Code as Makefile Project" -> click "Next >"
• In "Project Name", enter preferred name
• In "Existing Code Location", click "Browse..." -> locate "/your-path/work-dir-with-source-files" -> click OK
• In "Toolchain for Indexer Settings", select "<none>"
• Click Finish button
4. In the Project Explorer (Momentics IDE left side pane), you should be able to see your imported project
5. Right click project name -> "Build Project"
• ** Sometimes "Build Project" is disabled/grayed out. Please restart your Momentics IDE so that it becomes enabled.
