  3. === Integration with Eclipse
  4. While a part of the embedded Linux developers like classical text
  5. editors like Vim or Emacs, and command-line based interfaces, a number
  6. of other embedded Linux developers like richer graphical interfaces to
  7. do their development work. Eclipse being one of the most popular
  8. Integrated Development Environment, Buildroot integrates with Eclipse
  9. in order to ease the development work of Eclipse users.
  10. Our integration with Eclipse simplifies the compilation, remote
  11. execution and remote debugging of applications and libraries that are
  12. built on top of a Buildroot system. It does not integrate the
  13. Buildroot configuration and build processes themselves with
  14. Eclipse. Therefore, the typical usage model of our Eclipse integration
  15. would be:
  16. * Configure your Buildroot system with +make menuconfig+, +make
  17. xconfig+ or any other configuration interface provided with
  18. Buildroot.
  19. * Build your Buildroot system by running +make+.
  20. * Start Eclipse to develop, execute and debug your own custom
  21. applications and libraries, that will rely on the libraries built
  22. and installed by Buildroot.
  23. The Buildroot Eclipse integration installation process and usage is
  24. described in detail at
  25. https://github.com/mbats/eclipse-buildroot-bundle/wiki.
