Integration in eclipse as a workbench
It would be a great addition if codeblocks comes out also as a workbench that is pluggable into eclipse, that way it could benefit users that know how eclipse looks and feels. The developers can then use all the features from the eclipse platform to enhance CodeBlocks and provide updates.
Always wanted to have an C/C++ IDE that is ready to start but CodeBlocks doesn't fits into eclipse And the eclipse CDT tools come without a compiler which makes it difficult to find and install a good working system from that.
Especially for newbies. By integrating CodeBlocks into Eclipse could pave the way for a ready to go C++ IDE and complete suite to work with. CodeBlocks can also gain users from eclipse that would try it out and otherwise never heard of CodeBlocks.

Are you sure this is possible?? Code::Blocks is written with C++ and Eclipse is written with Java. They belong to different domain.
Apart from that C::B has been written to be a Full-fledged IDE, Not as a plugin/sub-project of another IDE. We don't have any such plan to integrate C::B with another IDE. That is not our goal.
Eclipse is only a framework, it is totally not that CodeBlocks will be a Sub-Project of it. This is not for anything soon, first codeblocks has to be completed and then there is time for looking at things like this.
Take a look at this, very interesting because it's a big project written in C/C++ that is made into a plugin for eclipse.
OpenOffice in Eclipse!!!

So it is possible to make a plugin in eclipse of big projects who are written in C/C++
Eclipse is NOT an IDE but a FRAMEWORK !!!
