system include directory of the cross compilers and tools you chose during project creation.
CDT uses this link to help build a database of C and C++ symbols. For more information, see
“Ensuring the C/C++ indexer runs” (page 29).

There are a number of ways you can create managed projects that you can use to build and

If the existing source base consists of ETK projects, consider using the Import ETK Projects wizard.
The Import ETK Projects wizard imports not only your sources, but also many tool settings, such as
compiler and linker options. For details, see “Importing ETK projects” (page 69).
This section provides examples of how to create managed projects from existing sources for two
scenarios: the first creates a project and uses sources outside your workspace, the second copies
the sources into your workspace. The first example uses a sample program named Car , the second
