How to get intellisense for C++ in eclipse while developing for android? - c++

I am developing for android using eclipse and android's plug-in for eclipse. I am getting proper intellisense for Java code. The application I am developing consists of both Java and C++ code. How can I get intellisense for C++ in this environment.
Thanks

Try downloading the C Developement Tools for eclipse (CDT). The update site can be found here. This module provides syntax higlighting and code completion for C/C++ and works fine for me.
EDIT: Sorry, the above link is dependent on my eclipse version. Here you can find CDT distributions for all other eclipse versions.

Change Mac Eclipse to Window Settings

from my computer class last year, I have a bunch of c++ programs. I made these programs in Microsoft visual c++ 2010. That program I used it only available on Windows so I needed another program for I can still code. I now have a Mac and I want to still be able to code, so I downloaded Eclipse. My question is, how do I change the Eclipse setting to be the same as the windows? For example, when I copy my coding, it finds (using namespace std) and (#include ) as an error. Thank you!
Which version of eclipse did you install? Unless you installed the versions of eclipse with C/C++ plugins, it's just a Java IDE.
But uh Eclipse kind of sucks anyways so I'd recommend trying Clion.

Eclipse for C++ Windows 7 64-bit PC

I am using 64-bit Windows 7 PC and I want to develop C/C++ programs using Eclipse IDE.
I have tried DOSBox but it was not working for me. Also, I din't liked it as well.
I just want to use Eclipse for the same. I tried using CDT Plugin in Eclipse but that doesn't worked.
When I create a new C++ project, there are different Tool Chains available - Cross GCC, Microsoft Visual C++, MinGW GCC. I really don't know what exactly it is. I tried all but I am getting error and snapshot attached :-
Basically, it is not able to detect what iostream, stdio, cout is.
I tried different solutions available on other posts but none worked for me.
I don't know what to do with it. I know I am having problem due to 64-bit Windows but I want to fix this now. Please help!
You need to install MinGW, and then select the MinGW toolchain when selecting a new project.
Well I tried different tool chains on Eclipse IDE, but nothing worked.
Then I installed CodeBlocks IDE and plugins for the same as well.
Sic: Now, I am running C/C++ codes on Code Blocks perfectly.
You need to download MinGW and install the C++ compiler, don't forget to add the MinGW bin to the system variables under "path".
I recommend you using Visual Studio Code. If you do install Visual Studio Code, make sure to install Code Runner plugin to make running C++ projects easier.

using codelite with scons

How difficult is to use codelite on top of a scons project?
what features i should expect to lose? is there a way to configure codelite to use the scons configuration files to keep track of the project files.
At the moment i'm using Netbeans 7.1, but the tool doesn't scale well with complex projects like LLVM. I'm curious with codelite as it seems to have a very good code completion architecture (relying on the llvm clang plugin) but i'm not sure how hard will it be to migrate my project (based on scons) to it
I dont know anything about codelite, but eclipse is an excellent IDE with code completion like you mention. There is an SCons plugin available for eclipse called SConsolidator.
I have found that eclipse has excellent support for C++ and Python.
Why not?
But codelite is old-school IDE with very poor functional, like Visual Studio 6. I recommend use Eclipse CDT.

C++ IDE Eclipse

I am looking for a C++ IDE, typically for debugging purpose. In particular, where I can navigate in source code; say method definition, member declaration etc.
I am a Java developer and use Eclipse. I create J2ME project in Eclipse, build it and finally deploy it at same place. At the time of debugging I can easily trace out what I am looking for.
For C/C++ support I installed plug-in "Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools".
After installing above plug-in, C/C++ code open with font/style/color...but not able to navigate :(
Please help me.
Thanks,
Amit
the cdt plugin from eclipse works fine for me. Perhaps you should update to the latest version and make sure you change your perspective to c++.
Another great c++ ide is qtcreator.

IDE for MinGW with SVN support

I would like to compile with MinGW on Windows. I am seeking for IDE (Visual Studio 2010 is out, because as far as I know it cannot use MinGW) with integrated SVN support like AnkhSVN plugin for Visual Studio 2010. One candidate is CodeBlocks. Does it have some SVN plugin? Or would you recommend another IDE? Thank you.
You can use Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers.
With the subclipse plugin you have accesses to svn as well
Link: http://eclipse.org/downloads/moreinfo/c.php
I use Eclipse with CDT, and SVN integration is very good.
I'm all for Eclipse CDT, it rocks.
However, you did mention you wanted something more lightweight.
A popular Windows and Linux alternative is Code::Blocks (http://www.codeblocks.org/).
Its a great open source C/C++ IDE and even comes bundled with MinGW.
EDIT: Also has SVN support, according to http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/7
You can also try netbeans, most people in my company use it now and they say it's faster than eclipse.
I still use eclipse, but since you don't want it you may want to try netbeans with svn plugin.
try http://qt.nokia.com/products/developer-tools
It was written for Qt but it can also be used for plain C++. Furthermore it has great support for CMake (if you are like me and do not like qmake).
I use Eclipse CDT at our school, the University of Advancing Technology in Tempe AZ. One of our students put together a package that's an all-in-one version of Eclipse CDT (Helios at the moment. Indigo real soon now.) + Subclipse + Boost + cppunit. It is targeted at Windows 7 only. If you wish, you can download this self extracting executable at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/341940/cdt.exe
I'm very partial to CodeLite. You can use it on Windows and Linux. It has support for Subversion, Qt, and wxWidgets.
