Description of problem: There's an upstream description here. http://code.google.com/p/pkg-config-support-for-eclipse-cdt/issues/detail?id=12 The pkg-config libs and includes are added to the project, but don't seem to be added to the actual makefiles, and so the project doesn't build. Very annoying as this would allow people to write Gnome apps in C, C++ and Java so much more easily. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Latest How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create C/C++ Autotools project 2. Add a dependency on GTK+3 3. Try to include gtk.h Actual results: Building project fails. Expected results: It works. Additional info: Upstream bug report http://code.google.com/p/pkg-config-support-for-eclipse-cdt/issues/detail?id=12
Jeff, would you please take a look at this one.
An Autotools project does not automatically manage the Autotool files for you as in the case of a Managed Make project which forms the Makefile on your behalf. The Makefile is under control of the appropriate Makefile.am/Makefile.in files. The pkg-config plug-in could conceivably set flags for the configuration that the Makefile.am could use (for example CFLAGS=xxxx, CXXFLAGS=xxxx) which is how Autotools adds options for gcov, gprof, and debugging (see Project Properties->Autotools->Configure Settings->Advanced). This could be used to add include and library paths for the build, assuming the Makefile.in follows normal C/C++ protocol for compilation/linking. This might require some consultation as the current exposed APIs might not be sufficient. Otherwise, the pkg-config plug-in would need to make the Autotool file changes itself.
