I installed Eclipse for Java Developers a couple months ago on Windows. Now I want to program c++ on it as well. Do I have to download Eclipse for c/c++ and just have to versions of Eclipse?

In ubuntu, I have both development environments available to me when I run Eclipse. How can I do that in Windows?

Thanks!

It should work the same way, via Help -> Install New Software.

However, using Eclipse CDT involves, as I understand it (I gave up C/C++
for Lent a long time ago), running something like mingw and/or cygwin on
Windows. You might get more and better help for this by visiting the
Eclipse CDT forum as suggested in the sticky post at the top of this forum.
