Nsight Eclipse not found/CUDA11.1 installation problems

I can't find Nsight Eclipse Edition after cuda installation.

I installed cuda11.1 on Ubuntu18.04(Nvidia Driver was installed before),and no error shows. But when I input "nvcc -V",and "nsight" on terminal, it shows "command 'nvcc' not found","command 'nsight' not found". I solved the former problem by adding environment variables to ~/.bashrc.And in folder /usr/local/cuda-11.1/bin, I can't find executable file "nsight"(executable file of Nsight Eclipse Edition),which should have been there after cuda installation. Someone has met this before?

I am trying to find Nsight Eclipse Edition,not Nsight Compute! – L.K
There is no Nsight Eclipse Edition anymore. NVIDIA ship plugins for standard Eclipse for C++ instead. Again documentation here -- docs.nvidia.com/cuda/nsightee-plugins-install-guide/index.html – talonmies
Thanks! I saw Nsight Eclipse plugins in installation guide but I didn't realize that is the new IDE.Thanks for your help! – L.K

Quoting from the CUDA 11 release notes:

CUDA Developer Tools

  • Nsight Eclipse Edition standalone is dropped in CUDA 11.0.

There is no longer a standalone fork of Eclipse for the Nsight IDE. Instead plugins are shipped which run inside in the standard Eclipse IDE for C++. See here in the documentation for installation and use.
