Bug 58217

Currently all you need to do is to copy autoproject and rename it to jamproject or 
sconsproject. 
And afterwords make the changes you need to this files. 
There is already a qmakeproject (the actual name is trollproject) and a antproject. 
 
Your second whish is already implemented in autoproject 
 
Amilcar Lucas 
 

This changed a bit. KDevelop's official build tools are:
Ant,
Autotools,
CustomMakefiles (You need to edit them by hand),
Generic,
QMake,

If you want to do this you should implement a generic build tool instead.

Read
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/cvs-api/kdevelop/html/howToAddGenericBuildTools.html

Currently (2003.11.23) the document is not finished but in the future it will have more info.

Jam would be a nice, integrated feature (as Ant and Make currently are)

Could the above page be updated some time? I would love to add another custom make tool, but I can't figure out how.

The page wasn't updated because there is ongoing work to implement project management and this work isn't based on generic project manager. But I can't say when will it be finished.

what is the status of the generic project manager? I have to work with a jam-project and need a rough estimate when the project manager and/or jam-support may be ready...

Created attachment 12549 [details]
Adds a "other" build tool to buildtools/customakefiles

I extended the selection of buildtools for the custommakefile project type.

Instead of only supporting ant (AFAIK with no options) and make (implicitely
adding make-specific command line arguments), I added an "other" tool where
anyone can specify his/her buildtool directly (we use jam with a bash wrapper
script called build.sh).

It's mostly copy&paste from the make part and I did not touch the environment
part (that is totaly duplicated), but it works for me...

SVN commit 637881 by apaku:

Add the possibility to run a buildtool other than make or ant

Initial patch from Achim Herwig <achim.herwig@wodca.de>, thanks.
