 <p>This book is organized so you can learn what you need to know quickly and easily. Each chapter has these common sections:
  </p>
 <ul>
 <li>The overview gives you a quick synopsis of what you're about to learn.
 	</li>
 <li>The suggested reading section tells you what you should know before starting each chapter.
  	</li>
 <li>The related information section gives you a quick list of the supporting material, including tutorials and movies. Some are marked "recommended."
 	</li>
 <li>The "How ... works" section gives you an idea of what's happening "underneath the covers" -- how the IDE, the host, and the target work together.</li>
 </ul>
 <p>The tutorials are in a separate guide so you can print and use them side by side with the corresponding chapters in this guide.</p>
 <p>

  </p>


 <h1><a name="id3">Assumptions</a></h1>

 <p>This guide assumes the following:


 </p>
 <ul>
 <li>You've already installed the base Eclipse components.</li>
 <li>You've installed the C/C++ Development Tools (CDT) plugin feature.</li>
 <li>You can write code in C or C++.</li>
 </ul>

 <h1><a name="id5">Note to Windows users</a></h1>

 <p>In our documentation, we use a forward slash
 (<tt>/</tt>) as a delimiter in <em>all</em> pathnames,
 including those pointing to Windows files.


 </p>
 <p>We also generally follow POSIX/UNIX filesystem conventions.
