Re: [cdt-dev] First gotcha with add/exclude children of FFS

[subs <dmsubs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

One question I would have with linked resources is - would it work outside of 
Eclipse? That is, we use CDT to create a project using linked resource, and it 
generates a makefile. Can I then run that makefile from the command line?

I think this functionality is essential for whatever you do.

Thanks
