So I'm currently in a practical session at my university and not a single person can figure out how to add the pthread library in Eclipse. This is my first time with Eclipse though.

I'm using Fedora, and when I go to Properties->C/C++ Build->Settings, all I get is a drop-down list for configurations and nothing else - no tabs for tools to add it.

Can anyone help me? Thank you!

Damn

Settings

Make sure you have in Project -> Settings -> C/C++ Build the option "Generate Makefile automatically" selected! Otherwise Eclipse assumes you are providing your own makefile and doesn't show the "Tool setting" tab.

Then you need to go to Project -> Properties -> C/C++ Build do this.

I might just walk out of here. I go there and there's no Library or Library Paths tab. – Stickerbox Feb 8 '13 at 10:16
    
Are you doing exactly this? blog.asteriosk.gr/2009/02/15/… – Dan Feb 8 '13 at 10:19
