### About Eclipse IDE for C/C++ |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Eclipse** is the most widely used **IDE** for **Java** and it is famous for its **Java Integrated Development Environment (IDE)**, but there is also a cool version of the **IDE** which supports **C/C++**, for more info: |
|

|
In this guide we will cover the various installation steps. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Configuring mingw-w64 on Windows |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to work with **raylib** and **Eclipse** you need to download the **Mingw-w64 Installer** and follow the steps in the wizard. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When prompted choose the following settings: |
|
|
|
|
|
* **Version:** 7.2.0 |
|
|
|
|
|
* **Architecture:** x86_64 |
|
|
|
|
|
* **Threads:** win32 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then proceed with the installation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once it is finished ensure that there is the path where your **MinGW-w64** has been installed to e.g., **C:\mingw\mingw64\bin** in your **PATH** environment variable (if there is not just add it manually). |
|
|
|
