CDT就是C/C++ Development Tools,属于Eclipse tools Project,目的是为Eclipse 平台提供一个完整的C and C++ Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
Linux/Unix平台下的C/C++ 程序员有福了！当然，Ｗindows程序员也没有被排除在外，下载一个cygwin,就可以了．The compiler supported is gcc, the debugger interface will work with gdb 5.2.1 (or higher) and the default build command is GNU "make".

下面解释CDT的平台依赖性的原因。
The CDT Framework is platform independent. It will run where Eclipse will run. However, the default implementations may depend on external applications. To follow in the Eclipse spirit of open source, the default implementations rely upon freely available open source tools, such as the GNU Tools: GDB and Make. Therefore, the dependencies on GDB for debugging, or Make for building, will require that these applications are available for the platform that the user wishes to use.
The core plug-ins are written in Java with a small amount of native code and thus may be ported to any platform supported by Eclipse. However, some default implementations may require that other software or tools, licensed under GNU, may be required.
In general there is some version of Linux and some version of windows used by the developers on the CDT.
NOTE: The CDT does NOT run on Windows 98 and Windows ME.

三、What tools do I need to run CDT?
In order to build your C++ code and debug your C++ executable, you will need to get a compiler, a make program and a debugger.
There are several tools that can help you run GNU Tools on Windows.
Cygwin
MinGW.
Note: MinGW also works on top of a CygWin installation.
Both of these tools offer a selection of GNU tools such as gcc, gdb and make.
For example, on Windows you can install the Cygwin toolkit which is a Unix environment for Windows and includes automake and gdb.
