Sanity testing assumes your environment is set up with:
   a. JDK 1.3.1_09 on your path ("java -version") 
   b. g++, nm, c++filt is on your path 
   c. "gdb -version" = 5.2.1 or 5.3 
   d. You run Eclipse 2.1.2 (with or without the -data argument) 
   e. Use Install/Update Perspective to get to http://update.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/updates/builds/1.2.1RC2

Sanity Tests:
0.  JUnit Tests
1.  You can create new projects. 
   a. Create a new (Standard Make) C++ project 
   b. Create a new (Managed Build) C++ project 
2.  You can import existing projects. 
   a. Import an existing C++ project (eg. HelloWorld) from somewhere
on disk. 
3.  You can build a Standard Make project. 
   a. Ensure that a valid Makefile exists in the project. 
   b. Project > Build initiates a build. 
4.  You can build a Managed Make project. 
   a. Ensure that the Managed C++ Make project was created to produce
(depending on your host) a Cygwin/Linux/Solaris Executable. 
   b. Disable Window > Preferences > Workbench > Perform
build automatically 
   c. Use New Class Wizard for a class "Foo" (accept defaults)
to create a Foo.cpp and Foo.h file. 
   d. In "Foo.cpp", type "main" then Ctrl-Space
to add a template for main().  (Add a trailing newline.) 
   e. Project > Rebuild creates the Makefile and builds an executable.
5.  Files are parsed for language highlighting, and for Outline View.
   a. Open a CPP file in a C++ project and verify language and outline
view. 
6.  You can edit and save C/C++ files. 
   a. Enable Window > Preferences > Workbench > Perform build
automatically 
   b. Open a CPP file, modify something, and save. 
   c. Saving the file causes an automatic build. 
7.  You can use the C/C++ Search mechanism. 
   a. Enable indexer for project. 
   b. From the Search dialog, find all Class Declarations named "*"
in Workspace. 
8.  You can create and run debug configurations. 
   a. Make sure you have built (with -g option) a simple executable.
   b. Create a new Debug configuration (using GDB/Cygwin Debugger)
   c. Set "Break at start of main()". 
   d. Run the configuration. 
   e. Step over a statement, or run to a break-point. 
   f. Run to completion. 
9. You can close the session. 
   a. If started from the command-line (Unix/Linux), no messages were
produced on the console. 
   b. There are no errors in the .metadata/.log file
