That is between you and Eclipse. If you, say, cd into the examples/ directory
of RInside and say 'make', the example programs will build. Look at what
arguments are computed to g++ and copy those into your Eclipse settings.  Or
else -- use a Makefile which works for several other projects using Rcpp.  As
I do not use Eclipse myself, I cannot help you with its particularities.

Rcpp and RInside have their own 'rcpp-devel' list off the Rcpp R-Forge project.

Cheers, Dirk
