Add the Compiler to Eclipse*

This step is needed only if you are manually installing the Intel® C++ Compiler plug-in for Eclipse*.

To add the Intel® C++ Compiler product extension to your Eclipse configuration:

  1. Start Eclipse.
  2. Select Help > Install New Software.
  3. Next to the Work with field, click the Add button. The Add Repository dialog box opens.
  4. Click the Archive button and browse to the <install_dir>/compiler/<version>/linux/ide_support directory. Select the .zip file that starts with com.intel.compiler, then click OK.
  5. Select Intel® Software Development Tools > Intel® C++ Compiler Integration, then click OK.
  6. Follow the installation instructions.
  7. When asked if you want to restart Eclipse, select Yes.

When Eclipse restarts, you can create and work with CDT projects that use the Intel® C++ Compiler.
