I have a project which works perfectly in code:blocks with the MinGW compiler.
I go to open the project in netbeans and only the "bin" and "obj" directories are showing.
Is there a proper way to open code:block projects in netbeans?
At first step You can use cdb2make to generate Makefile's,
and in Netbeans IDE create the new project this existing sources... :)

I am just starting to use Eclipse IDE, I have installed the IDE, Eclipse CDT and then MinGW x64. Which new project do I select: there is no simple C++ project, all I see:
Arduino (WHY?)
Managed (don't need those)
cmake
I don't know what cmake is? And why is there a caution 'Experimental' on makefile project?
WHICH TO CHOOSE?
I have been looking for a good IDE for c++, and Eclipse CDT seems to be a good candidate. I develop(ed) my projects in CMake, which means I need to be able to generate an Eclipse project with CMake in order to use Eclipse. CMake has an configuration option for Eclipse, but it's old and incomplete.(My version 4.9 isn't supported anymore)
So I am wondering if there is another way to generate a Eclipse project using CMake, that is compatible with newer Eclipse versions. Does anyone know of one?
The Eclipse project generator HAS to be separate, it can't be integrated into Eclipse itself, as I need the project source files to be in a different location than the build files.(For GIT)
Thanks!
I hope I understand you correctly, that you want to use the CMake to generate a "project file" that you can later use to work with the Eclipse CDT.
You can generate a "Unix Makefile" from CMake. The option appears in the drop down menu, when you click configure, if you start cmake with gui in Linux (by typing cmake-gui at the terminal).
And then create a new project in the Eclipse CDT IDE by using the "Makefile Project with Existing Code" option in the menu (File->New->Project->"Makefile Project with Existing Code").
In this way, you will be able to use the Eclipse CDT IDE with your project.
How Can I migrate my large C++ project from Netbeans to Eclipse which include multiple flags,library etc.
Try to install Visual Studio 2017, it will help you migrate both from netbeans and from eclipse at the same time.
Follow This Steps...
1.In Eclipse, Go to File -> New -> Java Project
2.Give a name for your project and click finish to create your project
3.When the project is created find the source folder in NetBeans project, drag and drop all the source files from the NetBeans project to 'src' folder of your new created project in eclipse.
4.Move the java source files to respective package (if required)
Now you should be able to run your NetBeans project in Eclipse.
I am using CMake as my build system and I told it to generate Codeblocks MakeFiles. It did that successfully. Now I have a Codeblocks project that I've opened up and I don't know where to start creating an actual program to compile. What do I need to do next?
Once you have opened the project in CodeBlocks, it's CTRL-F9 to build (or menu "Build"->"Build"). This is for release 12.11, could have changed in more recent version.
Currently I am doing C++ Development on Windows and Mac using Visual Studio and XCode respectively and planning to start on Linux too.
I know just a little about Linux, gcc/g++, gdb, Makefile.
Can one who works on large GUI development, how they debug it, as using gdb command-line tool for debugging will be difficult, as I have been in comfort of visual studio / xcode(front-end) debugger?
I see only Makefile for project on linux, is eclipse ide make project on basis of makefile?
Thanks
Eclipse will do all of that stuff for you, including creating your makefile. Before you compile for the first time, just press ctrl+B and it will build your project for you.
All of your library linking can be done by clicking on the "project" menu, then under C/C++build, click "settings". There should be a setting on there somewhere that says "libraries", which is listed under GCC/C++ linker.
It's simple to work on project with existing makefile in Eclipse.
Just go to File -> Import -> C/C++ -> Existing code as Makefile project.
This will let you build your project from IDE. To debug it just go to Run -> Debug. If default launch generated this way is not ok for you, you can customized Launch configuration in Run -> Debug configurations.
There are several IDE for linux as
CodeBlocks
Codelite
which may also use custom makefile.
