Re: cygwin1.7 and Eclipse CDT?

Has anybody gotten Eclipse C++ CDT to run with Cygwin 1.7.?
My Eclipse does not recognize Cygwin being installed and I cannot use the Cygwin gcc tool chain.

The CDT looks for Cygwin in the registry. But Cygwin 1.7 doesn't use the registry anymore. It works if you upgrade from 1.5 to 1.7 but not if you install 1.7 from a clean Windows or in another location.


Here is a blog post about what registry key to modify/create.
