Eclipse CDT on Linux

[blagamihai17]

I have installed Eclipse CDT on my ubuntu 18.10 laptop and I got it to build, using cdt integrated in toolchain, but it won't run. The error message is about the "make program". Should I try adding Eclipse on the PATH? And if yes, how am I doing it? (usr/bin/eclipse is the location)

To be honest, Eclipse is way too complex for simple C/C++ development. It became lke PL/1 - "a tool made by a committee".

CodeBlocks is much simpler to setup and use. Make sure you have GCC toolchain installed. From shell prompt, see whether you have "make", "gcc" installed.

Seems like the g++ wasn't installed. I will keep using cdt bcs I got used to it. Thanks for the solution
