Hello everyone,

Recently installed Eclipse (Kepler)... Ok will provide some more info about that:
I downloaded Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Devepores. As I can understand you don't actually need to install it.. just run an *.exe file. Am I right?

My problem,or actually a question I would like to ask, is about some sort of warning message, when I open my new C project.

While opening the New C Project I have two tool-chains to use: "Cross GCC" or "Microsoft Visual C++".

According to WIKI I need to prefer the "Cross GCC" in all cases:"unless I'll develop my own OS".

So now to the point:
When using Cross GCC I get this error message:
Code: [Select all] [Show/ hide]
Description Resource Path Location Type
Program "gcc" not found in PATH project [Discovery Options] page in project properties C/C++ Problem



The second problems is:

When using a Microsoft Visual tool-chain, I get this one:
Code: [Select all] [Show/ hide]
Description Resource Path Location Type
Invalid project path: Include path not found (C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Include\gl). project pathentry Path Entry Problem


Now about those "Discovery options", I googled those problems a little I found some sort of solution,but, guys I don't actually have those options in my Kepler, here is some print-screen image:
://s23.postimg.org/p8xqq87tn/eclipse_pref.jpg


So, I don't have any as you can see. Maybe these settings moved to other place?

In any case any help will be greatly appreciated, I would like to know what is the meaning of those errros and how can I fix them.

Thanks a lot,

Ivan.
Because I'm new out here and I have posted only this message, I can't add pictures from other sites, here link to my print screen -> ://s23.postimg.org/p8xqq87tn/eclipse_pref.jpg just add an "http" before.

Please read http://help.eclipse.org/kepler/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.cdt.doc.user%2Fconcepts%2Fcdt_c_before_you_begin.htm&cp=9_0

Then install MinGW toolchain and select it in Eclipse.

That is utter nonsense. You need "Cross GCC" if you want to develop an application that is for a system that is different from your host system (e.g. arm-linux on Windows)


Before you ask

Hello,

Thanks a lot Axel!

Now all works like charm, no warnings or errors etc..

Could you, provide some brief explanation about those warnings I had before?

Ivan.

P.S. here is the link, regardless Cross GCC: wiki.osdev.org/Why_do_I_need_a_Cross_Compiler%3F . They may mislead people like me.
