Step1: You will need to dnld the Eclipse IDE (which includes, by
default the Java IDE and a Plug-In development environment) first.
This is a zipped file. Unzip it.

Step 2: Install the needed Java SDK. Start eclipse by giving:

eclipse -vm <full path of ur JRE *binary*>

(For some unknown reasons, this argument is needed in Linux)

Step 3: Look for the CDT(C/C++ Development Tools) project on the
Eclipse website.

Most probably http://www.eclipse.org/cdt.  It has a downloads page.

Step 4: option one - use the "update site" link given and download
through Eclipse itself, using the Update feature under Help ->
Software Updates -> Find and Install

Step 4: option two - get the zipped file & unzip according to
instructions on the page.

CDT is an excellent IDE and is intended to be used on Linux for
development for Linux. At least that's mentioned somewhere in the
charter. Anyway, Eclipse is a brilliant platform for development in
many aspects and CDT has inherited these aspects.

Do go ahead and try ur hand out on CDT.
