Hi !

I'm a beginner in ros, and I'm trying to develop ROS code using Eclipse.

My question is, recently I have created a repository in github with a ros stack, and inside of this ros stack I have some packages. I would like to import all the stack like a single project, but I'm not able to do a "make eclipse-project" with the stack.

So I can import as a project all the packages and it work perfectly but I don't know if is possible to import all the stack in one eclipse project.

Any one have done this ?

How do you develop multiple packages using a IDE ? you open a project for each package and put dependencies between them ?

I use Eclipse and to work on several packages at once, I simply make projects for each individually, and open them into my workspace. Eclipse will find and open all project under any directory you give it which works well for a stack if you've made Eclipse projects for each with make eclipse-project

AFAIK, neither Eclipse nor CMake can auto-detect other eclipse projects to link them automatically

$ cat ~/bin/make-eclipse-all
!/bin/bash
basedir=$(pwd) for file in $(find . -name 'CMakeLists.txt'); do makedir=$(dirname "$file") echo $file - $makedir cd "$basedir" cd "$makedir" make eclipse-project done

(This is really a comment to add to Asomerville's answer but I don't have the Karma to edit the post and the comment want format the script nicely).

I have this script to create all the project files for a workspace/stack. Just cd to the root of the workspace and run to have make eclipse-project run on all packages.

 $ cat ~/bin/make-eclipse-all 
 #!/bin/bash
 basedir=$(pwd)
 for file in $(find . -name 'CMakeLists.txt'); do
     makedir=$(dirname "$file")
     echo $file - $makedir
     cd "$basedir"
     cd "$makedir"
     make eclipse-project
 done

This script works great although I can't tell what is the poster's name...anyway thanks a lot!

I'm not using eclipse, but I'm guessing that the dependencies should still be resolved by rosmake called via eclipse. You can have a look at this page: ROS IDEs

This will be more straightforward under rosbuild2, where there is a single invocation of cmake and therefore a single project file generated.
