Please see this blog: https://jazz.net/blog/index.php/2011/08/24/cc-development-on-rational-team-concert/

Obviously you need a compiler and a linker for that. I'm not sure if the Eclipse CDT provides a executable compiler like the Eclipse Java ECJ. You can get free GNU compilers from the internet however.

Hi Ralph,

I go through https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/CppBuild
We need c++ project and make file. Could you tell me where to kept this project and makefile in repository, In same folder or kept these files separatly. Because I kept the make file and project in same folder and when I request for build then It shows the result as "in Progress" for long time

The project would typically be shared into a RTC SCM workspace and delivered into a stream. the makefile would sit in that project. The build would download the data and in the next step it would call the make using a commandline or from ANT or however you decide to do it. I would recommend to look at the sample project on a test server, to see how build is usually set up. Build Artifacts Publishing Using HTTP Servers in Rational Team Concert also has some information around setting up builds.

The help has the basic information too: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSCP65_5.0.2/com.ibm.team.build.doc/topics/t_build_overview.html?cp=SSCP65_5.0.2

Hi Ralph,

I am following http://blog.boriskuschel.com/2011/07/oslc-development-using-cc-on-jazz-part.html 
and 
http://blog.boriskuschel.com/2011/08/automated-builds-using-cc-and-rational.html for C++ build for the simple HelloWorld.cpp using makefile. I completed all the steps mention in above blog, When I run the build in commond prompt and request for the build from build engine then the status of console is as below - 

2015-06-04 17:54:06 [Jazz build engine] Running build loop...
2015-06-04 17:54:06 [Jazz build engine] Waiting for request...

It is not moving ahead and In eclipse the status in build windows the status is "Pending".
Is there any specific setting for running the build. I make all the settings as mentioned in the above blog.  Could you please tell me the solution for this problem.

Seriously, read the help provided about how build works in http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSCP65_5.0.2/com.ibm.team.build.doc/topics/t_build_overview.html?cp=SSCP65_5.0.2

If there is no build definition and no build request, the build engine will do nothing

Hi,

I have successfully run C++ build with the above reference. When we create the build in java then after completion of Build  there is option for Download tab and we will able to download java files from Download tab, In C++ there is no option for Download tab. Is it a good practice or something I am missing here?

If you refer to the Downloads tab on the build result, you can use ANT tasks to contribute to the build. See: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSCP65_5.0.2/com.ibm.team.build.doc/topics/r_ant-tasks.html?cp=SSCP65_5.0.2

However, I would consider not to fill up the database with a lot of binary downloads and rather do this: https://jazz.net/library/article/797 or something similar.
