- create a new empty C++ project with your preferred name and the path is ~/src/ns3devt on
- click right on the project and go to team->share project
- click on next and click on use local hg and finish
You should have now your project configured with eclipse and be able to pull, update, view history, etc in eclipse. The next steps will allow you to configure, compile and run the code from eclipse.

- Write ${workspace_loc:/ns3dev}/waf in the build command
- Make sure your build directory is the build directory in ns3dev (${workspace_loc:/ns3dev/build})
- Click on the behaviour tab
- Remove the `all` option in front of the build checkbox and write `build`
- Now when you click on build you will be able to build the project using waf
