In this paper we look at the Eclipse IDE and its support for CDT (C/C++ Development Tools). Eclipse is an open source IDE and supports a variety of programming languages including plugin functionality. Eclipse supports the standard GNU environment for compiling, building and debugging applications. The CDT is a plugin which enables development of C/C++ applications in eclipse. It enables functionality including code browsing, syntax highlighting and code completion. We verify a 50X improvement in LOC automation for Fake class .cpp / .h and class test .cpp code generation.
