some question of a newcomer [message #201005]

Why doesn't bulid the project automatically by saving it, when the build
automaitcally is checked in the preferences->workspace?

By starting a new C project I get a warning: "Directory with specified
name already exists !" Previosly I had a project with the same name, but I
have deleted it with the option "Also delet content under: C:\..." . Is
this not enough to forget the eclipse, that such a project ever existed?

A small thing: By starting a New Project with Project Wizard in the "C
projet tab" the C project icon is the same as for the C++. I don't rally
understand. Neither do I understan why is there an option for a "Hello
World C++" executable when I have preveously choosen C project.

Perhaps there is a missing .h file in the code.
I had a similar effect with manual make via the menue. As long as the
h-file was missing the menue item for make was deactivated.

Well you need to check "Save Automatically Before Building" in addition
to "Build Automatically" in Preferences->General->Workspace .
