![]() ![]() Even if you close the window, it will reappear next time you run the program. Note that if you prefer a pop-up console window, you can right click and select the ‘Detached’ option on the console tab. You should see “!!!Hello World!!!” in the console area at the bottom of the screen (Figure 3). If this happens, select Build (the hammer icon) before trying to Run. Note: Eclipse may be set to NOT build automatically, in which case you will get an error about the binary not being found. Now all you have to do is hit ‘Run’ (it’s that little green button that looks like a play symbol). Figure 2: Your Hello World Project Your project in action If you expand the project folder on the left, and then expand the ‘src’ folder underneath it, you will see the location of your program file, Hello.cpp (Figure 2). You should now be able to see your ‘Hello’ project on the left hand side of the screen, and the contents of the Hello.cpp file in the main window. Click Finish.Įclipse will create your project and project file and return you to the main C++ view. Click next and again accept all the defaults in the Select Configurations window. Figure 1: Create a Hello World C++ ProjectĬlick next and accept all the defaults in the Basic Settings window. Name it Hello, and select the project type as Hello World C++ Project (Figure 1). This opens the C++ ‘perspective’ in Eclipse, which is a fancy way of saying it makes available the windows and options you need to develop C++ programs. ![]() Window > Open Perspective > Other > C/C++ Open eclipse (you’ll find it in the Applications > Programming menu), and if this is the first time you have used it, accept the default workspace and close the welcome window. There’s a wealth of information on the Eclipse website that tells you how to install Eclipse for your operating system, but the heads up if you’re a Fedora user is just switch to root (or use sudo) and run: yum install eclipse-cdt Create your project ![]() I program on Fedora Linux, not Windows, so although your screenshots may differ slightly to mine, Eclipse runs quite happily on both. Why? Because in the majority of my other C++ tutorials I will be using Eclipse as the IDE (integrated development environment), and building on a basic project such as this. ![]() This is a tutorial on creating and understanding a ‘Hello World’ program in C++ using Eclipse. It’s a series of professional video and text tutorials on using C++ and Eclipse CDT. ![]()
