Eclipse C++ IDE, Issues setting up

Question

I'm having issues with setting up Eclipse for C++ editing. I am using Cygwin and Eclipse (obviously), and I've gotten to the point of making the example project Hello World. However, when I try to create a new project I always get the message "Launch Failed. Binary Not Found". I know this is a common issue, but why would the default hello world project work and not mine?

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

• First Build the project ( project menu in navigation bar)

• then, A new folder named Binaries will appear now in project explorer. (refresh if needed)

• Now you can try running your project, and no errors will appear.
