               In the Toolchain list, select QNX
                     QCC. 
               
            
 
            - 
               Click Finish.

               In the Target Navigator view, select the new project you created, right-click and
                  select Properties.

            - 
               In the make field, add the command line (without the
                  target to build) that calls your make (e.g. c:\make\make -f
                     makefile.mak -k). 
               
            
 
            - 
               Click the Behavior tab, then add your targets for
                  running an incremental build, the clean build, and the compile build. 
               
            
 
            - 
               Ensure that the option Build (Incremental Build) is
                  selected; otherwise, the build can't be started. 
               
            
 
            - 
               Specify any other desirable options for properties on the other panels. 
               
            
 
            - 
               Click OK. 
               
            
 
            - 
               When everything is properly configured, from the toolbar menu select  to run the make project.
