"C/C++ Development Tooling" plug in Eclipse

It is weird that the official website of CDT does not contain anything about how to integrate the CDT with an existing Eclipse, and so does its google search within the website. However, except the awkward "import project" method (at least, for me... I have tried several times on the username/password to ssh the remote server), the method mentioned here is much more straightforward. For more information, the Eclipse CDT wiki is a nice place to go.

The method is:

1. Download the master zip file and put it somewhere on your machine.
2. Fire up Eclipse (The Platform Run-time 3.6 is minimum recommended)
3. Help->Install New Software...
4. Add... in the master zip as an Archive site
5. Under CDT Main Features select the one you want. C/C++ Development Tools is the main one. The SDK adds in the schemas and source for building extensions to the CDT. The C/C++ Development Platform is the Tools without the GNU toolchain support.
6. You can install other neat things, including the Mylyn bridge, from the CDT Optional Features category.

ps.
the Pydev install web address is: http://pydev.org/updates/
The EPIC for perl can be downloaded from: http://e-p-i-c.sf.net/updates. And it also need the ActivePerl (http://www.activestate.com/Products/activeperl/) for windows os.
