You do not need to convert anything.
XCode (at least starting with version 1.5) does have "GNU Make" or "External build system" target, depedning on version


You can create this target, edit the target settings (making the "make" command line arguments to handle your makefile).
This would allow you to build your product (using makefile) from XCode IDE.


Then you can add source files to the project, create the "Custom Executable" in the project, edit your "Custom executable" settings to point you your built binary.
This would allow you to set breakpoints and debug visually, using familiar XCode IDE.


I am using this technique quite often, on both OS X 10.3.9/XCode 1.5 and OS X 10.4.8/XCode 2.4, so feel free to ask me more if you would meet some troubles.

Is there a way to quickly convert a Makefile-based project into an Xcode project? Or is there at least a way to debug such a project in Xcode? The project in question is rather non-trivial (in this case the Click router).

I just started playing with Xcode today, so assume I know next to nothing about it because, well, I don't. :)

Thanks,
Nick
