Overview: Eclipse* Integration

The Intel® C++ Compiler for Linux* includes a compiler integration with Eclipse* and the C/C++ Development Tools* (CDT). This functionality is included with the compiler installation. The compiler integration with Eclipse also supports the Intel® Debugger (idb) if the debugger is installed.

Note

Eclipse and CDT are not bundled with the Intel compiler. They must be obtained separately. See the Installation Guide for details.

The Intel C++ Compiler integration for Eclipse is not supported on systems based on Intel® 64 architecture.

Eclipse is an open source software development project dedicated to providing a robust, full-featured, commercial-quality, industry platform for the development of highly integrated tools. It is an extensible, open-source integrated development environment (IDE).

The CDT project is dedicated to providing a fully functional C/C++ IDE for the Eclipse platform. CDT is layered on Eclipse and provides a C/C++ development environment perspective.

The Intel C++ Compiler integration with the Eclipse/CDT IDE lets you develop, build, and run your Intel C/C++ projects in a visual, interactive environment.
