You will need
- Eclipse for C/C++ Developers as can be found on the Eclipse Download page
- a MIPS GNU toolchain (compiler/assembler/linker/debugger aka gcc/gas/gld/gdb)
- a GDB compatible jtag probe to connect to your hardware

Thanks for that reply.

I have downloaded the Eclipse for C/C++. But I also see something as CDT ?
Do I need to install the CDT(4.0.2) also ?

If you had downloaded Eclipse for C/C++ then CDT is included.

Hi ,
I installed the Eclipse for C/C++ and tried to create a "test" project.
For simplicity, I created the HelloWorld project supplied by Eclipse.
After creating the project, and I try to compile the program, it gives me
an error :

=====
**** Build of configuration Default for project tes ****

make all
make: Error -- Don't know how to make tes.o
======

Do i need to do something more besides this ?

Thanks ,

Vivek

What operating system do you use?
On Linux you need gcc, and on Windows you need CygWin with gcc and
configure this properly to use CDT
Beside newsgroup org.eclipse.cdt is a better place for asking CDT
related questions.
