Getting eclipse c++ set up on linux?

I downloaded the c++ version 开发者_如何学Cof eclipse from the eclipse website. This installed then when i ran the basic hello world code, it wouldn't compile.

What else do i need to install to get c++ compiling on eclipse? I thought linux already had what it needed for c++ building/running? Ive googled around but the advice is for older versions of eclipse and the screen captures show options not available anymore.

I'm on Ubuntu 64

Eclipse CDT needs a makefile to build.

You need:

• GCC
• Eclipse

Eclipse has a built-in option to create a "helloworld" app. You simply go to File->New->C++ Project->Hello World C++ Project (Under the executable dropdown)->Enter a project name->Finish

Then you just click the run button and you should see "Hello World!!!" in the terminal at the bottom of the Eclipse window. If you still get this same error you did previously respond to this and I'll show you how to check to see if you have gcc installed.

If that doesn't help visit this blog post from July 2010 detailing how to achieve your goal.

You should already have gcc but try this just in case:

sudo apt-get install gcc

If that doesn't do anything then you have gcc installed and the problem is probably with eclipse.
