The Eclipse plugin is pretty much unmaintained, and therefore not
usable with recent Eclipse versions. Note that you can still use more
recent Eclipse versions, it's just that you will have to configure
Eclipse manually to point to the toolchain.

It's not related to Eclipse, but you can for example see
https://bootlin.com/blog/building-a-linux-system-for-the-stm32mp1-setting-up-a-qt5-application-development-environment/
which explains how we configured Qt Creator to use the toolchain
provided by Buildroot to build and debug applications.

Best regards,

Thomas
