I am already using eclipse for JAVA and I wanted to install eclipse-CDT for C/C++ program development. To install eclipse-CDT I typed

sudo apt-get install eclipse-cdt

in the terminal and it installed correctly. But when I launch eclipse again and go to file->new, I don't see any provision for creating a C/C++ project. Kindly help
