\nOn a Raspberry Pi 1 (pre RPi2 model B)\n<\/p>\n
\nForget it! Technically eclipse will run, but not really! The RPi 1 is far too underpowered for it\n<\/p>\n
\nOn a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B\n<\/p>\n
\nYes we've got eclipse to run, but not with the cdt c++ compiler installed for it. Lets hope this can be fixed soon as currently eclipse seems totally unstable for c++ development on the RPi\n<\/p>\n
