RealView Debugger automatically generates appropriate makefiles when projects are created or updated. Makefiles are constructed using the user-defined information in the Project Properties window and the gen_***.mk template located in the \etc subdirectory of the RealView Debugger installation. Here *** corresponds to the default processor family and toolchain.

Generated makefiles can be viewed using any standard text editor, but hand editing of generated makefiles is not recommended because RealView Debugger automatically updates any makefiles to reflect any subsequent changes made in the Project Properties window.
