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!


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.
