So I have several projects going which are becoming painful to edit in Arduino IDE; Notepad++ is better but windows-only, and I would like to use Eclipse IDE on Windows and Linux. Also I need to write some Python code and I'd like to do all this in one IDE if possible. I used Eclipse a lot a couple of years ago when writing Java code so I hope it comes back to me quickly. The point of this post is to ask if anyone else is using Eclipse with Teensy 2 and 3?
I found this page about using AVR Eclipse plugin and (after too much fussing) have got Eclipse to build and upload to a Uno board. I still don't have the 'Target Explorer View' Serial Terminal displaying data from Uno but also now Putty won't either. I found it necessary to install 32-bit Eclipse, Java, and rxtx to get them all to play nicely and enumerate COM ports.
(A few months ago I did try adding Eclipse Arduino IDE 2.4 to Luna 64-bit eclipse but it never worked right). It should be possible to just point Eclipse at the correct libraries and board definitions and write C++ code, right? And get Eclipse to upload compiled programs to Teensy.
With the recent updates to Arduino 1.6.5r2 and Teensyduino 1v24 it should be easier to get Eclipse to see the Teensy libraries and board definitions without copying files and using special boards.txt and platform.txt right?
I'm trying to document as I go, here should be a shared link to the Google Doc file.
Is anyone else having success with Eclipse Luna-SR2 (4.4.2), Arduino 1.6.5r2, and Teensyduino 1v24?
