Книга: Embedded Linux development using Eclipse

Summary

Summary

This chapter has introduced the basic concepts and operation of the C/C++ Development Tools, CDT. We saw how to create a project and looked at the many tools the C Editor offers to ease the task of coding. We examined many of the views in the C/C++ Perspective in detail, to see how they contribute to the development process.

After building the project, we looked at the Debug perspective in detail, with particular emphasis on the many capabilities of breakpoints. We also looked at other views in the Debug perspective to see how they help you gain insight into what’s happening in your program.

Finally, we explored a couple of nifty features of Eclipse that can make life easier for developers. Projects can refer to, and can be dependent on, other projects. When changes are made to the referenced project, the dependent project will be rebuilt. Refactoring offers a way to automatically rename a symbol throughout a project or a set of related projects.

The next chapter goes deeper into CDT. In particular, we’ll look at how to connect a remote embedded target and debug a program on it.
