<h1>CDT overview</h1>
|
|
<p>The C/C++ Development Toolkit (CDT) is a set of Eclipse plug-ins that provide
|
|
C and C++ extensions to the Eclipse workbench. For more information about
|
|
Eclipse, see <b>Workbench User Guide > Concepts > Workbench</b>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The CDT provides a C/C++ IDE that simplifies many of the same tools that
|
|
you can use from the command line. The CDT can also communicate with many external
|
|
utilities and interpret their responses, such as:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Build (such as make).</li>
|
|
<li>Compile (such as gcc). For more information, see
|
|
<a href="http://gcc.gnu.org">http://gcc.gnu.org</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>Debug (such as gdb). For more information, see
|
|
<a href="http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/">http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/</a>.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>The CDT opens as the C/C++ perspective of the Eclipse workbench. The
|
|
C/C++ perspective consists of an editor and the following
|
|
views:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The C/C++ Projects view lists all C/C++ projects.</li>
|
|
<li>The Navigator view lists all Eclipse projects.</li>
|
|
<li>The Tasks view lists items such as tasks, compiler warnings and errors.</li>
|
|
<li>The C-Build view displays the output from make.</li>
|
|
<li>The Properties view lists the properties of a file that has been selected in
|
|
the C/C++ Projects view or the Navigator view.</li>
|
|
<li>The Outline view lists file components.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>For more information, see <b>Workbench User Guide > Concepts > Perspectives</b>.</p>
