This release of the Yocto Project supports both the Neon and Mars
|
|||
|
|
versions of the Eclipse IDE.
|
|||
|
|
This appendix presents information that describes how to obtain and
|
|||
|
|
configure the Mars version of Eclipse.
|
|||
|
|
It also provides a basic project example that you can work through
|
|||
|
|
from start to finish.
|
|||
|
|
For general information on using the Eclipse IDE and the Yocto
|
|||

<title>Configuring the Cross-Compiler Options</title>

<para>
|

|
|
Cross Compiler options enable Eclipse to use your specific
|
|||
|
|
cross compiler toolchain.
|
|||
|
|
To configure these options, you must select
|
|||
|
|
the type of toolchain, point to the toolchain, specify
|
|||
|
|
the sysroot location, and select the target
|
|||
|
|
architecture.

and

|

Select this type when you are using
|

|
|
a stand-alone cross-toolchain.
|
|||
|
|
For example, suppose you are an
|
|||
|
|
application developer and do not
|
|||
|
|
need to build a target image.
|
|||
|
|
Instead, you just want to use an
|
|||
|
|
architecture-specific toolchain on
|
|||
|
|
an existing kernel and target root
|
|||
|
|
filesystem.
|
|||
|
|
In other words, you have downloaded
|
|||
|
|
and installed a pre-built toolchain
|
|||
|
|
for an existing image.

|
|
<listitem><para><emphasis>
|

<filename>Build System Derived Toolchain:</filename></emphasis>

Select this type if you built the

|
|
toolchain as part of the
|
|||
|
|
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#build-directory'>Build Directory</ulink>.
|

When you select

<filename>Build system derived toolchain</filename>,
|
|||
|
|
you are using the toolchain built and
|
|||
|
|
bundled inside the Build Directory.
|
|||
|
|
For example, suppose you created a
|
|||
|
|
suitable image using the steps in the

|||
|
|
<ulink url='https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/TipsAndTricks/RunningEclipseAgainstBuiltImage'>wiki</ulink>.

|
<note>
|
|||
|
|
The host on which you are running QEMU must have
|
|||
|
|
the <filename>rpcbind</filename> utility running to be
|
|||
|
|
able to make RPC calls on a server on that machine.
|
|||
|
|
If QEMU does not invoke and you receive error messages
|
|||
|
|
involving <filename>rpcbind</filename>, follow the
|
|||
|
|
suggestions to get the service running.
|
|||
|
|
As an example, on a new Ubuntu 16.04 LTS installation,
|
|||
|
|
you must do the following in order to get QEMU to
|
|||
|
|
launch:
|
|||
|
|
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
|
|||
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install rpcbind
|
|||
|
|
</literallayout>
|
|||
|
|
After installing <filename>rpcbind</filename>, you
|
|||
|
|
need to edit the
|
|||
|
|
<filename>/etc/init.d/rpcbind</filename> file to
|
|||
|
|
include the following line:
|
|||
|
|
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
|
|||
|
|
OPTIONS="-i -w"
|
|||
|
|
</literallayout>
|
|||
|
|
After modifying the file, you need to start the
|
|||
|
|
service:
|
|||
|
|
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
|
|||
|
|
$ sudo service portmap restart
|
|||
|
|
</literallayout>

One useful task at this point would be to determine the

|
|
IP Address for the user-space NFS by using the
|
|||
|
|
<filename>ifconfig</filename> command.
|
|||
|
|
The IP address of the QEMU machine appears in the
|
|||
|
|
xterm window.
|
|||
|
|
You can use this address to help you see which particular
|
|||
|
|
IP address the instance of QEMU is using.

Once the QEMU emulator is running the image, you can deploy
|
|||
|
|
your application using the Eclipse IDE and then use
|
|||
|
|
the emulator to perform debugging.
|
|||
|
|
Follow these steps to deploy the application.
|
|||
|
|
<note>
|
|||
|
|
Currently, Eclipse does not support SSH port forwarding.
|
|||
|
|
Consequently, if you need to run or debug a remote
|
|||
|
|
application using the host display, you must create a
|
|||
|
|
tunneling connection from outside Eclipse and keep
|
|||
|
|
that connection alive during your work.
|
|||
|
|
For example, in a new terminal, run the following:
|
|||
|
|
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
|
|||
|
|
$ ssh -XY <replaceable>user_name</replaceable>@<replaceable>remote_host_ip</replaceable>
|
|||
|
|
</literallayout>
|
|||
|
|
Using the above form, here is an example:
|
|||
|
|
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
|
|||
|
|
$ ssh -XY root@192.168.7.2
|
|||
|
|
</literallayout>
|
|||
|
|
After running the command, add the command to be executed
|
|||
|
|
in Eclipse's run configuration before the application
|
|||
|
|
as follows:
|
|||
|
|
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
|
|||
|
|
export DISPLAY=:10.0
|
|||
|
|
</literallayout>
|
|||
|
|
Be sure to not destroy the connection during your QEMU
|
|||
|
|
session (i.e. do not
|
|||
|
|
exit out of or close that shell).

However, if a previous QEMU session did not exit

As mentioned earlier in the manual, performance tools exist

(Linuxtools) that enhance your development experience.
|

|
|
These tools are aids in developing and debugging applications and
|

|
|
images.
|

|
|
You can run these tools from within the Eclipse IDE through the
|
|||
|

"Linuxtools" menu.
