Hi Eduardo,
I am not using eclipse/CDT but MinGW + UnxUtils + Dos command prompt :-)
I describe the steps made for setting-up the environment here:
http://list.coin-or.org/pipermail/coin-discuss/2006-March/001908.html

Additionally I use a Makefile that is a modified version of the Makefile 
found in COIN/Clp/Samples/Makefile.anywhere
This one:

# Start of the Makefile
EXENAME := setcoveringCG

SOURCEFILES :=
SOURCEFILES += main.cpp
SOURCEFILES += SetCoveringCG.cpp
SOURCEFILES += CbcCompareUser.cpp
SOURCEFILES += CbcHeuristicUser.cpp

SRCEXT := cpp

#OptLevel := -g
OptLevel := -O2

# End of the Makefile

Obviously you should adapt it for your path and source files.
And use at your own risk :-)
I hope to be useful.

Bye.
