Eclipse Plug-in for importing projects into Eclipse CDT exported by Arduino Create.

• Java 8 or newer,
• Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers 2018-12 (4.10) or newer,
• make, and cmake on the PATH.

Command line:

./mnvw clean verify 

Eclipse:

• Clone the arduino-create-eclipse repository and
• Import the sources into your Eclipse workspace with
  • Import... > General > Existing Projects into Workspace.
  • Select root directory and browse the root of the cloned repository.
  • Enable Search for nested projects, and
  • Hit Finish ✨

The easiest way to install, is to drag and drop the Install button into your running Eclipse workspace. This plug-in is also available at Eclipse Marketplace.

The p2 update sites are available for each released version on GitHub as a ZIP archive. The latest p2 is available here. If you want to use the p2 update URL inside Eclipse, you must prefix the URL with jar: and suffix it with !/.

• URL of the latest p2:

  jar:https://github.com/arduino/arduino-create-eclipse/releases/latest/download/arduino-create-eclipse-p2.zip!/ 

• Generic p2 URL pattern for any semver releases:

  jar:https://github.com/arduino/arduino-create-eclipse/releases/download/v${semver}/arduino-create-eclipse-p2.zip!/ 

• Example URL for version 0.0.1:

  jar:https://github.com/arduino/arduino-create-eclipse/releases/download/v0.0.1/arduino-create-eclipse-p2.zip!/ 

The following Arduino Create export structures are supported:

• Folder:

  _cmake |____ build (empty) |____ core | |____ Arduino.h | |____ (other core .h and .cpp files) |____ lib | |____ (3rd party libraries if any) |____ sketch | |___ sketch-file.ino.cpp |____ CMakeLists.txt 

• ZIP:

  arduino_create-cmake.zip |____ _cmake |____ build (empty) |____ core | |____ Arduino.h | |____ (other core .h and .cpp files) |____ lib | |____ (3rd party libraries if any) |____ sketch | |___ sketch-file.ino.cpp |____ CMakeLists.txt 

Currently, you can build the imported Arduino Create project on Linux only.

• Windows:

  C:\path\to\your\project\_cmake\core\shell.h:8:10: fatal error: sys/wait.h: No such file or directory #include <sys/wait.h> ^~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. 

• macOS:

  /path/to/your/project/_cmake/core/DebugSerial.h:56:2: error: unknown type name 'pthread_barrier_t' pthread_barrier_t _barrier; ^ 1 error generated. 

Q: What happens when cmake is not installed on the system?
A: If cmake is not installed, you will see the following console output in Eclipse:

Buildfile generation error occurred.. cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS:BOOL=ON -G “Unix Makefiles” /home/user_name/dev/arduino-create-eclipse-ws/arduino_create-cmake Cannot run program “cmake”: Unknown reason Error: Program “cmake” not found in PATH PATH=[/home/user_name/bin:/home/user_name/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin] Build stopped.. 

Q: What happens when cmake4eclipse is not installed in Eclipse?
A: This Eclipse plug-in has a hard dependency on cmake4eclipse. It will be implicitly installed into Eclipse when this Eclipse plug-in is installed either from a p2 update site or the Eclipse Marketplace.

• This plug-in is licensed under the EPL-2.0.

• This project is built on the top of cmake4eclipse🥇
