hello

I've just started learning Linux and i want looking for a good IDE so
naturally i installed eclipse

However i have a small problem, for some weird reason the editor hangs
whenever i type std:: which should
bring up the std namespace (that's what i get in msvs) however all it
does is just hangs for a few seconds and
does nothing.

any kind of would be much appreciated, Alex Snast

Sorry it doesn't hang but rather opens the name scope after like 10
seconds

If there is a way to turn that feature off, do it. You're not going to
miss it until you're deep into developing a very complex application
that consists of many parts and has a bunch of third-party libraries
interface to which you don't care to learn.

Now, as to how to disable that feature, I don't know. IDEs are OT to
put it bluntly.

Yes... that is very annoying... I use the Windriver Workbench that is
actually built ontop of Eclipse 3.3... The menus are a little bit
different, just more tool sets for profiling, on chip debugging,
etc... but the main menus are more or less the same. And I can't
remember the exact options available with the CDT plugin, but you can
probably figure this out...
Go into your Preferences menu item. On left hand side there's an
option fo "C/C++", if you drill down you will see another option for
"Editor", drill down further and you will see an option for "Content
Assist"... click on this and in the main tab you should see something
that enables Content Assist for the scope operator (:... just un-
check this...

Like I said though, depending on what version of Eclipse, the menus
are different, but if you can't find this, look in the section
for "Content Assisst"
