Description Aidan Delaney 2011-03-12 21:40:32 UTC
Description of problem:
Running eclipse-cdt-7.0.1-5.fc15 there is no New C++ Project type.  Furthermore, Window->Preferences does not provide any C++ preferences.  This renders eclipse-cdt unusable.

I discovered this issue whilst trying to get the Android dev tools working.  So maybe this is deeper than CDT.  The same issue arises.  You'd expect a Window->Preferences->Android list of preferences, but no Andorid preferences are listed.

The Android issue occurs with JDT, but this bug describes the issue in the most minimal form I could whilst only using Fedora packages.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@SillyFace aidan]# rpm -qa | grep eclipse
icu4j-eclipse-4.2.1-2.fc15.x86_64
eclipse-platform-3.6.1-5.fc15.x86_64
eclipse-cdt-7.0.1-5.fc15.x86_64
eclipse-swt-3.6.1-5.fc15.x86_64
tomcat5-jasper-eclipse-5.5.31-3.fc15.noarch
eclipse-rse-3.2-3.fc15.noarch
eclipse-rcp-3.6.1-5.fc15.x86_64
eclipse-emf-2.6.0-2.fc14.noarch


How reproducible:
Clean install of Fedora 15 Alpha
Install all updates
su
rpm -qa | grep eclipse | xargs yum -y remove
yum install eclipse-cdt


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch Eclipse
2. Look in (Menu Bar) Window->Preferences
3. No C++ preferences are visible
4. File->New->Project shows no C++ project type.


Expected results:
I'd expect to be able to create a C++ project

Same problem here on x86_64. No C/C++ Projects with eclipse-cdt!
