Eclipse C/C++ SDK in stall question

[olivia123]

I would like to add c/c++ sdk to my Eclipse install. I installed it thru the add/remove... menu item and it installed only the Java SDK. How can I add c/c++ ? Thanks

There is only the Java Eclipse in the ubuntu repos. You have to install it from the source. It's really simple.
Eclipse downloads: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/

Thanks, I downloaded and installed CDT 3.1.2 -- org.eclipse.cdt.sdk-3.1.2-linux.x86_64.tar.gz as per the instructions.

When I run eclipse and creating a new CVS project, it is asking in a window:

"Define the location and protocol required to connect with an existing CVS repository."

I'm not sure what eclipse is trying to do. I just want to develop c projects locally. Any suggestions? Thanks, ;)
