Eclipse being one of the most popular +Integrated Development Environment, Buildroot integrates with Eclipse +in order to ease the development work of Eclipse users. + +Our integration with Eclipse simplifies the compilation, remote +execution and remote debugging of applications and libraries that are +built on top of a Buildroot system. It does not integrate the +Buildroot configuration and build processes themselves with +Eclipse. Therefore, the typical usage model of our Eclipse integration +would be: + +* Configure your Buildroot system with +make menuconfig+, +make + xconfig+ or any other configuration interface provided with + Buildroot. +* Build your Buildroot system by running +make+. +* Start Eclipse to develop, execute and debug your own custom + applications and libraries, that will rely on the libraries built + and installed by Buildroot. + +The Buildroot Eclipse integration installation process and usage is +described in detail at +https://github.com/mbats/eclipse-buildroot-bundle/wiki. |
