Hi folks, I am a student and pretty new to the Eclipse IDE.
I downloaded and installed Eclipse 3.1.2 in my Windows XP machine.
Because my primary interest in coding in C++, i performed online
installation of CDT 3.0.2 from a remote site.

I installed Cygwin, but it did not include GCC by default. I tried
reinstalling it but no avail. I am not able to get the Cygwin
installation screen on my computer.

I then installed MinGW and modified the "path" variable to include both
  C:\cygwin\bin and
  C:\MinGW\bin

Since some of the Unix commands included in cygwin\bin and MinGW\bin
execute perfectly on the command prompt, i guess the installation is
proper.
However when i write a C++ Managed make application, the project does
not "build" (Ctrl-B). More over, when i try running the file as a C++
Application, the following error message is displayed:
                         "LAUNCH FAILED NO BINARIES"

If by binaries it means the g++.exe files then i have put them in the
C:\MinGW\bin folder, I have tried Googling but coulnd get anything
concrete.
Pls guide.

Thanks,
