Has anybody gotten Eclipse C++ CDT to run with Cygwin 1.7.?
Yes, it works for me.
I have the latest version of Eclipse Galileo (3.5.2?) and I've Cygwin
1.7 up to date.
Notice, anyway, that I don't heavily use it (e.g. I compile only one
file at time choosing "Build selected item" on project explorer).
I hadn't to do anything strange to make Eclipse recognize Cygwin 1.7
(anyway notice that I previously had Cygwin 1.5).
It's worth noticing that with the default Eclipse configuration I
wasn't able to compile using gcc/g++.
This was due to the fact that in Cygwin 1.7 gcc, g++, etc. are
symbolic links (alternatives?) that are marked as executables. This
causes Eclipse to believe they are Win32 executables and make it to
try to execute them (Eclipse doesn't understand Cygwin's symlinks).
To fix this (but maybe this has already been discussed in this list),
in Eclipse preferences just change the references to gcc, g++ putting
instead the names of the real executables (g++-3, gcc-3, etc.)
Ciao,
Danilo
Thank you Danielo! That closed that case for me. :)
