install eclipse

I am working on windows 7. I have downloaded eclipse for c++.
I have JDK installed in my laptop. I have read to make the IDE work for
c++. You have to download extra applications like cygwin,mygwin,gcc.I have also
downloaded them. but now i dont know what to do next.I have already set path in the
path variables.but it seems that the problem lies here. running gcc command outside its
directory is giving error as command not found.please help me with some suggestions
Thank You.

I just recommend that you get Visual Studio Express or Code::Blocks + mingw. They're both automatic installations. Just install and you're ready to go.
