I tried to flush out these instructions but have not been able to duplicate Kevin's success yet. Here is what I tried so far:
INSTALLATION OF ECLIPSE:
Go to http://www.eclipse.org (The C++ area is http://www.eclipse.org/cdt )
Download eclipse- SDK 3.1. (100 MB),
Run eclipse.exe, and then choose the menu option: Help | Software Updates | Find and Install
Select the "() Search for new features to install" radio button, and press next.
Click on the [New Remote Site] button, and enter
Name: cdt
URL: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/eclipse3.1
Click on [Finish], and you should get a [ ] cdt checkbox. Check it, and click [next], and continue through the license.
We are gettiing CDT 3.0 to match with the SDK 3.1.
Do the restart workbench option.
File | New | C++ | Standard Make C++ Project.
Project Name sw
[Environment tab], [New]
Name:SMARTWINDIR
Value: \src2005\c++\win32\gui\smartwin\lib
[finish]
Right click on your project and Import , File system, from directory .....smartwin\tests\hellosmartwinworld
Select main.cpp and Makefile.mingw.main
Rename "Makefile.mingw.main" to "Makefile"
Build completely failed - I must be missing something.
