Does anybody know how to add a C/C++ project nature to an Eclipse project through the UI ? I'm importing a project and working with legacy code that was originally started in Visual Studio 4 and I'd really like to be able to make as much use of Eclipse's helpers as possible.

Assuming you've got the CDT plugin installed
Right-click on the project.
Select: New -> Other
Under C/C++, select "Convert to a C/C++ project"

6In the current version, they've improved the menu item so it now reads "Convert to a C/C++ project (Adds C/C++ Nature)" – James Moore May 02 '12 at 17:20

2Just a note: this feature works exactly as advertised: it *Adds* C/C++ Nature to a project. Which turned out to work great for my Java project which also includes JNI C++ code, allowing it to also keep it's existing Java nature. – Ogre Psalm33 Oct 01 '13 at 14:31
