By default Eclipse (CDT) uses .cpp file extension for C++ files. I would like it to use .cc (and .hh) extensions instead but I cannot find such an option anywhere.
edit: To be precise, it creates a .cpp file when I start a new C++ project. Can this behaviour be changed to creating a .cc file?
I would have expected it under Window > Options > C/C++ > File Types, but as far as I can see that doesn't help. I've searched Google and the only page I found explains how to do it in Netbeans. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Source code for a C++ program; may include all the code for a single program or may be one of several source code files referenced by a programming project; contains functions that are compiled into machine code, which the computer's operating system can understand.
It is common practice across most platforms (ie: UNIX, Microsoft Windows, etc) that C source code files end with the ". c" extension. This is in contrast to C++ source code files which can and do vary in ending from ". cc" to".
The place to enter your extension is in Window → Preferences → General → C/C++ → File Types. Click the New button, enter your extension and select the file association.
