The console should update and you can note the cross-compiler

<note>
When building "Yocto Project ADT Autotools" projects, the Eclipse
IDE might display error messages for Functions/Symbols/Types
that cannot be "resolved", even when the related include file
is listed at the project navigator and when the project is
able to build.
For these cases only, it is recommended to add a new linked
folder to the appropriate sysroot.
Use these steps to add the linked folder:
<orderedlist>
<listitem><para>
Select the project.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
Select "Folder" from the
<filename>File > New</filename> menu.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
In the "New Folder" Dialog, select "Link to alternate
location (linked folder)".
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
Click "Browse" to navigate to the include folder inside
the same sysroot location selected in the Yocto Project
configuration preferences.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
Click "OK".
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
Click "Finish" to save the linked folder.
</para></listitem>
