====== Developing MIOS Apps with Eclipse ======

===== Overview =====

Eclipse IDE is a platform-independent development environment. However, you'll need a number of other tools that are not platform independent. You'll need GPUTILS and SDCC to compile for the PIC micro-controller. Please fallback to following guides depending on your platform to get the necessary installation informations:

  * Windows : [[windows_toolchain_quickstart|Windows Toolchain Quickstart]]

  * Mac OS X : [[Installing GPUTILS and SDCC on OSX]]

  * Linux : [[Installing GPUTILS and SDCC on Gentoo Linux]]

Along with GPUTILS and SDCC we will install [[http://www.eclipse.org/|Eclipse IDE]] and the Eclipse [[http://www.eclipse.org/cdt|C/C++ Development Tools]] (aka CDT).
Finaly, we will install the [[http://eclipse-sdcc.sourceforge.net/|EclipseSDCC]] plugin that integrates the open source Small Device C Compiler (SDCC) within the Eclipse/CDT.

**__WARNING__** Please note that EclipseSDCC is only compatible to **Eclipse 3.1** yet. This means that you'll need a dedicated fresh 3.1 version in case you have a 3.3 for other uses. This page will be updated when a new version of the EclipseSDCC plugin will be available.


===== Install Eclipse IDE and CDT =====

  * [[http://archive.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.1.2-200601181600/index.php|Download the correct Eclipse "Platform Runtime Binary" for your platform]] (lots of platforms are available)
  * Unzip it in the appropriate directory.
  * Launch Eclipse
  * Select the directory where your projects will be hosted
  * Open the Update Manager (Help > Software Updates > Find and Install...)
  * Select "Search for new features to install" and press "Next"
  * Click "New Remote Site..." and enter the "http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/eclipse3.1/" as the update site URL.
  * Press "Finish"
  * Select the CDT update site miror
  * Check the "Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools" node and press "Next" (the "SDK" feature is for those who wants to extend CDT...)
  * Accept the term in the licence agreements
  * Optionaly change the CDT location (or leave it in your eclipse distro) and press "Finish"

===== Install EclipseSDCC plugin =====

  * Quit Eclipse
  * [[http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=160896&package_id=182340&release_id=399105|Download the correct EclipseSDCC binary for your platform]]
  * Extract the archive in a temp directory

  tar xvzf net.sourceforge.eclipsesdcc-1.0.0-linux.gtk.x86.tar.gz

  * Copy contents of the features/ directory to the features/ directory of your eclipse install and do the same for plugins.

  cd net.sourceforge.eclipsesdcc-1.0.0-linux.gtk.x86/
  cp -R features/* /opt/eclipse-3.1.2/features/
  cp -R plugins/* /opt/eclipse-3.1.2/plugins/

  * Relaunch Eclipse

Now we are done with installation. We now have to configure Eclipse properly.
