eclipse isn't a compiler its an IDE, your compiler is probably gcc, clang or visual c++ – Alan Birtles Feb 25 '19 at 10:33
see the documentation at https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/blob/master/src/README.md – Alan Birtles Feb 25 '19 at 10:36

Then: "To build from source using Cygwin or MinGW, follow the Unix installation instructions, above." – Alan Birtles Feb 25 '19 at 12:43
