If you're going to the trouble of re-installing Eclipse, why not install
Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers to start with? You'll get exactly the
right stuff for C/C++ development and you can add, as has been the topic
of discussion in this thread.
Best of luck.

Yes, but you'll run into the same uncertainties. Eventually, you'll want
to continue asking for a hand here if Help -> Install New Software isn't
working for you. Best practice is NOT to download anything and try to
put it in the dropins folder. That's old school (although I'm pretty
sure there are still plug-ins that are distributed that way).
I maintain several Eclipse installations as I wouldn't be tempted to mix
C/C++ development with Java. The Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers will
have all the web stuff and more than you could want for web development.
To that you could add PHP, for example.
It's hard to see why you'd ever be tempted to mix C/C++ with Java, but
hey, I don't know and I have tunnel vision.
Many like to do it all in one Eclipse; others, including me, prefer
separate Eclipses. For example, I won't mix Android with JEE
development, so I keep separate Eclipses, separate workspaces, etc., but
that's how I roll.
As for ASP (bite thy tongue!), I don't know that I've heard of doing
that in Eclipse. If I had to do it, and somehow decided not to slash my
wrists beforehand, I'd probably just use VisualStudio, which I know from
having used it to be a pretty damn good IDE. (It's just the wrong altar
to worship at.)
;-)
Best of luck,
Russ

You'll find just as many who like to dump it all into the same Eclipse
as those of us who keep it separate. It's probably more religious than real.
