I have been a programmer for awhile now, I have been using eclipse for java since the begining and gedit/pico for my C files. I recently found out that eclipse has the option to do C/C++ stuff. I jumped for joy, but with getting this netbook i am stumped out to set it up.

I am new to linux, and naturally each os is different.

Can someone tell me how to set it up so i can boot Eclipse for my java projects as well as for my C/C++ projects? I am not going to be doing them simultaneously but i program both frequently throughout the week. I wasnt sure if it was just a button to switch back and forth between the 2 languages or what.

I have Java eclipse, and i downloaded eclipse-ccp-galileo-SR2-linus-gtk.tar.gz but i wasnt sure what i should be doing with it etc.

Help would be most appreshiated! Thanks all!

go to terminal and run:


tar xf eclipse-cpp-galileo-SR2-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz

then check out eclipse-folder and find the eclipse-file. Click it in nautilus and jump into the world of C/C++
