Eclipse is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) - a fancy programmer's editor and much more. It does not include a compiler. In most Linux distributions, you need to install a compiler for the language you're programming in. The compiler typically installed is the Gnu Compiler Collection (GCC) which includes the C compiler, gcc, and the C++ compiler, g++, with the typical libraries. In a distributions that use apt, the command to install the basics for programming is:

sudo apt-get install build-essential

Sorry, but I don't know for sure what the method is in Debian to accomplish the same thing. Either someone smarter will help, or you might try Googling.

I use 'sudo apt-get install build-essential' to get c++ library.
But I can't compiler my program on Eclipse.
why ??
