To convert a non-QNX project into a QNX project: 
         
         
         
            - From the menu, select .
- Expand QNX.
- Select Convert to a QNX Project. 
- Click Next. The Convert C/C++ Projects wizard appears.
               
               
                    
 
- Select the project(s) you want to convert in the Candidates for conversion field. 
- Specify the language (C or C++). 
- Specify the type of project (application or library). 
- Click Finish. Your converted project appears in the Project Explorer view.
               
               Note: 
                  For IDE 4.5 or later, you will also have to do the following steps in order to successfully complete the conversion process:
                
                  - After the conversion, right-click on the project and select Properties. 
- On the left, expand C/C++ Build and select Tool chain editor. 
- On the right, deselect the option Display compatible toolchains only.
                     The Current toolchain list shows the defined toolchains. 
                  
- Select a tool chain, such as QNX QCC. 
- Click OK and exit the Project properties page. 
- Re-enter the project properties page to verify that all of the C/C++ build settings are set to their default values, including
                        the error parser.
 
            CAUTION:
            You now have a project with a QNX nature, but you'll need to make further adjustments (e.g. specify a target platform) via
               the Properties dialog if you want it to be a working QNX project.
