I have imported an Existing Code as Makefile (C) Project in Eclipse which I setup for debugging. Unfortunately I need to run the executable as root with sudo. When I start sudo eclipse the project seems to be a normal Java project or anything, but not as the c project that I setup as user. CDT seems to be there.

What could be the problem?

It's not a good idea to run development code as root. Why do you feel the need to do this? – alk Jun 11 '14 at 13:48
because a non persistent tap interface is created which needs root rights. but I have just seen that CDT is not recognized when eclipse is started as root. – user3714710 Jun 11 '14 at 13:56
installing CDT again helped – user3714710 Jun 11 '14 at 14:17
