Eclipse for C++ is only the editor for C++, but it is more like a plateform rather than an editor, because you can add or remove many modules from Eclipse.
So if you want to have your C++ code run on Elipse, you need to have a compiler installed on your machine first. If you are using the last release of Eclipse ( i am not sure which version ). It automatically detect a compiler on your stystem. For previouse verison, you need to point to the compiler whenever you want to run/debug your code.
I am currently use MinGW ( free compiler ) as the base compiler and Eclipse as the editor, and it works well for me!!!!
