[Bug 446131] Re: Eclipse doesn't open my C++ files

[GerryG]

Or, maybe not...
My notes indicated past issues, so I removed the gnu java and replaced it with Sun java (which I had been using before, but forgot). Eclipse then worked much faster. I WAS able to install the CDT from an archive and it appears to be working.

However, I'm seeing more (possibly) gtk issues. I am starting eclipse with the
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=TRUE
which helps some items, but not others, e.g. buttons may need Enter key instead of mouse click.

On @N7DRs comments on hosing things, it's not that bad with eclipse.
While the distro installs in a standard location, you can manually
download and install multiple versions and options in separate
directories under your home. With some previous issues, I once had four
different Eclipse's loaded:-)

Just make sure you're using Sun's java.

Ubuntu 9.10 karmic, 2.6.31-14
Eclipse 3.5.1 build M20090917-0800
CDT 6.0.0.200909110608
