No breadcrumbs support for eclipse-CDT?

I'm so used to working with Eclipse for java related projects that I thought I'd work with Eclipse CDT for C-projects too. 'Show in Breadcrumbs' was a nifty little feature that would show what method the cursor currently is at (in Eclipse JAVA).

I don't see that option in Eclipse CDT. Is it in some way, hard to implement? The closest I could find to using the breadcrumbs feature was this :

Go to Outline pane, open its menu (down arrowhead on the top, right side) and check the box "Link With Editor". Now the method name will be highlighted to coincide with the cursor location.

From(source) : here.

Are there any other alternatives to get the Breadcrumbs feature working under Eclipse CDT?

No. :-(

  • The option Link with Editor is not only available in the Outline view, but also in the Project Explorer view, and others
  • You can use Mylyn, which also automatically links the Project Explorer view with the file/function you edit.
