The GNU MCU Eclipse plug-ins

These are the Eclipse projects used to build the GNU MCU Eclipse plug-ins.

How to install

The recommended install method is via Eclipse Marketplace.

For manual installs, the stable version update site is:

• http://gnu-mcu-eclipse.netlify.com/v4-neon-updates

How to build

Prerequisites

• JavaSE-1.8
• Maven 3

Command line

$ git clone --branch=master --recurse-submodules https://github.com/gnu-mcu-eclipse/eclipse-plugins.git eclipse-plugins.git
$ cd eclipse-plugins.git
$ mvn clean verify

The result are two p2 repositories:

• repositories/ilg.gnumcueclipse.repository/target/repository
• repositories/ilg.gnumcueclipse.riscv.repository/target/repository

Note: in some older versions, maven complained something about local artifacts; in case this happens, add -Dtycho.localArtifacts=ignore when invoking maven.
