The Eclipse plugin at
https://github.com/mbats/eclipse-buildroot-toolchain-plugin allows
users of Eclipse to easily use the toolchain available in
Buildroot. To do so, this plugin reads
~/.buildroot-eclipse.toolchains, which contains the list of Buildroot
toolchains available on the system, and then offer those toolchains to
compile Eclipse projects.
In order to interface with this plugin, this commit adds an option
that allows the user to tell whether (s)he wants the Buildroot project
toolchain to be visible under this Eclipse plugin. It simply adds a
line in this ~/.buildroot-eclipse.toolchains file.

Committed, thanks. I know this is an internal script, but a bit of

+Integration with Eclipse
+------------------------
+
+While a part of the embedded Linux developers like classical text
+editors like Vim or Emacs, and command-line based interfaces, a number
+of other embedded Linux developers like richer graphical interfaces to
+do their development work. 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.

Hum, not sure to understand. The two patches were sent as a reply to
the introduction e-mail announcing the Buildroot/Eclipse integration
release, like for all patch series.

Let me just say that this is just awesome....
I am not an eclipse user myself, but we regularly have request for providing a BSP based on buildroot and a compatible
developement environement. This plugin is going to make things way more easier for us...
keep up the great work

Thanks for the kind words. At this point, it is really a first release,
and there are certainly many improvements to be made to make it more
useful. However, to achieve this, we really need some feedback from
potential users. The best would be users who are used to do embedded
development with IDEs, so that they can compare with what they are used
to have, and we can see how to improve this integration to fill the
missing gaps if any.
Thanks!
Thomas

I'll keep that in mind when I do some testing of the plugins...
I'm not doing buildroot work right now but it comes back often enough that you can expect feedback from me at some point...

So far so good, I have eclipse integration working up to this point, this saves
a lot of messing about that was previously required to configure a project to
pick up the cross tools and libraries - thanks!
The only thing I have noticed so far: there is a slight feature around the
pkg-config automatic inclusion of libraries. If I select then unselect a library
in the project properties "Pkg-config" tab in eclipse, then look at the "Tool
Settings", "Libraries" I find that the library is still in the list. Actually
there are multiple inclusions of the same library in the libraries list. Then
when I do a build, the linker command line has e.g. "... -luuid -lz -luuid -lz
..." on it. It doesn't stop it working but it is untidy ... and when I have
deselected the library I don't think I should find the linker still linking
against it.
I hope to explore more later ...

Yes, we also noticed this problem and we intend to work on fixing it.
