It is possible to use Eclipse/CDT with ANY compiler since CDT use the
make command to build your application and not a specific toolchain, at
least in unmanaged make mode.
If you use MSVC++ compiler you probably already have the nmake command
(make equivalent), so you only need to tell Eclipse to use "nmake"
instead of "make". However you still need to do the makefile yourself,
so that the nmake command knows what to do.
I use QT for instance so the qmake command generate Makefile for me
which are compatible with MSVC++ toolchain, as long as the QMAKESPEC
variable is correctly set.
PS: Please note that if you do build application using MSVC++ compiler
in eclipse you won't be able to debug them using Eclipse, CDT only
support GDB at the moment and GDB doesn't understand debug symbol
generated by MSVC++ compiler.
