| Re: [cdt-dev] Pop-up question? |
Well, How did you 'install'? If you just unzipped master*.zip, then you will get
everything that is delivered, including the tests (which as a user you don't
need). To install CDT, you should use the update manager and select 'local
archive site' and just select the components you need (Just CDT if you are doing
C/C++ development).
Also, I notice you installed 3.4M4 and CDT 5.0 - these are both VERY VERY early
developer builds of the next releases - due for release in June 2008. I would
strongly recommend using 3.3.1.1 and CDT4.0.2 if you want a stable release.
