I have a mac with Xcode and eclipse luna. I had another question saying that my mac could not program Xcode(with C++, not this question), so I turned to eclipse. Eclipse luna programs well with java... but I am interested in C++. So I look at a tutorial on how to include the C++ library with a project. I found that you must go to New --> Other... But there is no other. Then I look if the other tab does not show up tutorial and they said you must go t the top left of the screen and select C/C++, witch doesn't show ether. How can I make those tabs show up?
The correct URL is supposed to be http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/8.4/.
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/luna is an invalid link.
So to install CDT in Eclipse, just go to Help > Install New Software... and add http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/8.4/ to your list of repositories.
You need to add CDT (C/C++ Development Tooling) to your Eclipse.
It was compatible with Kepler, but the Luna CDT edition (8.4.0) is now available, June 25th, 2014:
p2 repository: p2 software repository: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/8.4.
p2 repository for Luna: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/luna
Eclipse with CDT: Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers
Use the "Install New Software..." dialog and entering the p2 repository URLs.

I had loaded the project to Eclipse but when I open the .cpp file, it like to open a text file.
Anyone know how to display the code-view in eclipse?
Please support.
Thank you so much.
I cannot find C/C++ in Window -> Preferences
Then you have no CDT installed – I suppose you got the version direct from the initial download page, but that's actually the java package – there's a link 'download packages' below, where you would have found the C++ package. Not too obvious, admitted.
Never mind, you don't need to re-install: Help -> About will reveil you your installed version's name ('Kepler', 'Luna', ...); via Help -> Install new packages you can add CDT plugin to your installation. Select under work with your release version of eclipse repository, e. g. http://download.eclipse.org/releases/photon.
Minimally, you need: C/C++ Development Tools, other plugins might be useful, too, like standalone debugger, call graph visualisation, unit testing support, auto tools support (configure, make; especially under linux), possibly LLVM support (if you want to use clang compiler), ...
My issue had been fixed.
Just do below steps in ubuntu:
Go to
https://www.eclipse.org/cdt/downloads.php and download newest CDT(C/C++ Develop Tool) version.
Copy the download file
eclipse-cpp-2018-12-R-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
to your folder in Ubuntu.
Extract
eclipse-cpp-2018-12-R-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
Run execute eclipse file -> Done.
I wonder if there is a support for C++ in Netbeans 9. This link shows C++ on screenshot (when creating new project). However, after installing, I don't have one.
I wonder if there is a support for C++ in NetBeans 9.
The answer to that is definitely no, and definitely yes...
No, in the sense that the use of C++ on NetBeans 9 is not currently supported by Apache, and it is done at your own risk. NetBeans is currently being handed over from Oracle to Apache, and they haven't got to the C/C++ part yet. See What's Happened to My Favorite NetBeans Plugins? for more information.
Yes, in the sense that it is technically feasible to do it; the NetBeans 9 IDE allows you to use C/C++.
This is what you need to do:
Step 1 of 2: Make C/C++ available as a plugin.
Tools > Plugins > Settings tab > click the Add button.
On the Update Center Customizer screen:
Enter some value in the Name field (e.g. "My plugins"),
Enter http://updates.netbeans.org/netbeans/updates/8.2/uc/final/distribution/catalog.xml.gz in the URL field
Click the OK button.
This should create a new entry in the Configuration of Update Centers list in the Settings tab.
Checking that new entry should instantly add plugins to the Available Plugins tab.
Click the Available Plugins tab, then click the Category column to sort the entries by category.
The Name of the entry at the top of the list should be C/C++. If so, you have successfully made the plugin available:
Step 2 of 2: Install the C/C++ plugin.
Check the C/C++ entry shown in the screen shot above, and then click the Install button.
Follow the wizard's instructions. The plugin will be downloaded and installed, and you will be required to restart NetBeans.
To confirm that C/C++ has been installed, click Tools > Plugins > **Installed tab. You should see an entry for the C/C++ plugin you just installed.
Also, verify that you can now create a C/C++ project through the Project wizard:
Notes:
The finer details on configuring C/C++ on NetBeans 9 (Tools > Options > C/C++) are unchanged from NetBeans 8.x. Refer to Configuring NetBeans IDE 8.0 for C/C++/Fortran for that.
Much of this answer has been copied from an answer I gave on problems with Tomcat on NetBeans 9, but the details are sufficiently different to merit a separate answer.
Netbeans 10 and 11 - adding C / C++ also works in the same fashion.
In Netbeans go to Tools->Plugins->Settings
Entry NetBeans 8.2 Plugin Portal is already present.
Click the checkbox next to this entry.
Switch to Available Plugins tab, click Check for Newest.
C / C++ is now on the list.
Computer that this is done is on Windows 10 x64.
You have to install C++ plugin (Tools -> Plugins)
I just did the default Java (8) installation of Eclipse on my Windows (8, yikes) laptop, and it seems to work just fine. However, I'm not as good at Java as I am with C and C++, and for some work it's more expeditious to use C/C++ than Java.
Unfortunately, the Eclipse installer for Windows doesn't make it very easy to set up Eclipse for C/C++. It looks like I'd be fine with Linux or BSD, but then I'd have to scrounge up another laptop (because I need the mobility) and install Linux or BSD on it. Yes, I need to leave Windows on this machine, so Windows hate isn't going to help me.
My lazy web search turned up this article: "Install Eclipse for C++ Development on Windows 7 64-bit". Is there a better installation guide than that, or does anyone care to describe the process in more detail?
Even though you have CDT features installed, you need to install a GCC compiler for windows such as MinGW or Cygwin. Once you install them, add the 'bin' folder in the installed path to the environment variables and then restart eclipse. You should now see MinGW compiler when you select "Create new C Project". After this step, proceed with your C programs and this should resolve your problems.
You will have to install a GCC compiler in your PC and then link it to the project each time you create a project. This can be done while you create a new project, or even after you have done so. You can download MinGW compiler through the following link
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/latest/download?source=files
Once you have downloaded the compiler and installed it, it can be linked through the following steps:
i. While creating a new project, choose MinGW GCC compiler in the tool chains.
ii. Once you have finished creating a project, go to Project->Properties.
iii. Look for Run/Debug Settings in the left panel.
iv. Click on the New tab and select C/C++ Application.
v. Look for Environment option.
vi. Click on the New tab.
vii. Type "PATH" in the Name bar and fill the Value bar with the path of the compiler. For me, its C:\MinGW\bin.
vii. Click on OK and you are done!
The instructions you link to have you install Eclipse IDE for C/C++ developers which will work fine to get a C/C++ development environment up.
If you would instead like to use your EXISTING installation of Eclipse and add C++ Development Tooling (CDT) you can launch Eclipse and then use Install New Software to install the C/C++ Development Tools
I have had a problem, I installed CDT in eclipse, the installation was successful. However, when I tried a project in C++, there is no selection for C++ Project in Menu File -> New. I have tried to find it everywhere but It doesn't show up. I also reinstalled it several times, It still didn't work.
My Eclipse is JUNO
here is the link I add to "Install new software" in help : http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/juno
Go to File -> New -> Other and find C/C++ projects. Unless you have the C/C++ Perspective view on I don't think C++ projects are offered at the first level under new. Once you actually, start a C++ project, Eclipse will ask if you want to switch to the CDT persepective.
I am trying to learn C++ with Cygwin and Eclipse Helios.
I got all the development tools under Cygwin installed; and installed the CDT package for Helios.
The problem is I don't see an option to create a C++ project from makefile or any other option. I can only see options for a C Project, C++ project and a new project from existing source code.
Here is what I referred to:
Eclipse seminar
Developing applications using the Eclipse C/C++ Development Toolkit
Questions:
Is there any clear guide to setup Eclipse for Cygwin?
Am I missing something in the setup?
any other suggestion will be helpful.
Are you asking how to setup GCC in cygwin + Eclipse? How about this tutorial?
I found this tutorial to be a very good source. It was almostperfect, apart that one more path needed to be add to the folder containing cygstdc++-6.dll which prevented anything to be printed on console. So, add to the Project Properties -> C/C++ General -> Paths and Symbols -> Includes GNU C++ the path to the missing dll folder: ${CYGWIN_HOME}/usr/i686-pc-cygwin/sys-root/usr/bin.
