Migrating from Mircrosoft Visual Studio C/C++ to Eclipse

Since last couple of years, I have been using eclipse IDE for developing Java applications. However, few days back I had to move to C++. As I was familiar with the eclipse IDE, I wanted to migrate the project from Visual Studio C++ to eclipse. I was on look out for steps to migrate the project from Visual c++ to eclipse. Googled for c++ plug ins that are available for eclipse. Found CDT plug here.Apart from CDT plug in, you also need to install a tool chain.You may use either Cygwin or Mingw.Below are the list of sites that list the steps in detail on how to configure CDT and how to get started with C++ development on Eclipse.
