This tutorial is an introduction to the C/C++ Development Tools (CDT) for
Eclipse. The CDT is a set of tools for Eclipse that provides a comprehensive
development environment for C/C++ developers. The intended audience is new
users
to the CDT or those with an interest in CDT but havenÂ’t used it yet. In this
tutorial you will learn how to create projects, create and edit files, and
build
and debug applications. This tutorial also includes code importation, standard
and managed make projects, and productivity features of the CDT such as content
assist and refactoring. The tutorial will include an introduction to the
Eclipse
CDT project describing the project structure, how contributions are made, how
to
get involved, and how plans, roadmaps and schedules are communicated to the
user
community. The tutorial will consist of presentation and demonstrations.
Attendees are encouraged to install Eclipse 3.1 and CDT 3.0 on the laptops to
follow along with the demonstrated examples.
