The message says: "Unable to find compiler command in toolchain". Make sure you have the gcc compiler in your PATH environment variable.

If you don't have MinGW gcc, then

  1. Install MSYS2 from here: http://www.msys2.org/
  2. In MSYS command line issue 'pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain' or 'pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain' depending on whether you want 64 or 32 bits MinGW gcc toolchain.
  3. Add the full path to either mingw64\bin or mingw32\bin to your PATH depending on the bitness you installed.
  4. Restart eclipse.

If you already have gcc, it is in your PATH, but still doesn't work, start procmon (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/procmon) and check what particular file CDT is looking for.
