You may convert third-party projects to build and run under ESbox. If C/C++ projects are standard autotools or Makefile-based projects which build normally in Linux, they should work fine in ESbox. Python projects should work fine as well.
Note: such projects should already live in a location visible to Scratchbox 1 if you want to build this way. The wizard does not move projects for you.
You may also convert existing ESbox projects to use other project types or builders using this wizard.
Note: If you have updated ESbox from an older version, you may see a recommendation to use this wizard from the Maemo Build Configurations page. Until the project is converted, it cannot be used for builds or launches:
This will show the projects in the workspace which are not currently recognized by ESbox. (Closed projects are also filtered out.)
If a single project is checked, ESbox will guess the project type and builder from the contents. You may wish to modify the project type (e.g., C, C++, or Python) and the project builder type (e.g. Make, Make with debian/rules, or Autotools). ESbox will warn you if the builder does not appear to be appropriate for the checked project(s).
Click Next.
In case there were warnings about the project builders, a dialog will repeat this information in an easier-to-read dialog:
If there are problems in C/C++ projects, you may re-configure the project later on with Project > Properties > C/C++ Build Settings.
