Can't find the tool settings in Eclipse CDT

Question

I am looking to add a few libraries to Eclipse CDT (latest version 8.2). However under the project -> properties -> c/c++ build -> settings....There is no tool settings tab

Answer 1

Same Problem here, with KEPLER. I switched C/C++ Build->Builder Settings->Builder type to External Builder and closed the properties window. When reopening properties the C/C++ Build->Settings->Tool Settings Tab was available.

Edit: If the External Builder switch is disabled, it can help to change the toolchain settings. By switching to e.g. MinGW and back, the switch becomes accessible.
