Back many years ago, we developed an Eclipse plugin that simplified the usage of Buildroot toolchains. Enabling the BR2_ECLIPSE_REGISTER=y was registering the Buildroot toolchain into a special file in your HOME folder that the Eclipse plugin would recognize to allow to directly use the Buildroot cross-compiler. This Eclipse plugin has not been maintained for years. The last commit in the repository dates back from September 2017. Since then Eclipse has moved on, and the plugin is no longer compatible with current versions of Eclipse. Also, Eclipse is probably no longer that widely used in the embedded Linux space, as other more modern IDEs have become more popular. All in all, it's time to say good bye to this Eclipse integration. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>
Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
