    <title>Using <trademark class='trade'>Eclipse</trademark> Neon</title>

    <para>
        This release of the Yocto Project supports both the Oxygen and Neon
        versions of the Eclipse IDE.
        This appendix presents information that describes how to obtain and
        configure the Neon 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
        Project Eclipse Plug-In, see the
        "<link linkend='application-development-workflow-using-eclipse'>Application Development Workflow Using <trademark class='trade'>Eclipse</trademark></link>"

                Configuring the Neon Eclipse Yocto Plug-in involves setting the
                Cross Compiler options and the Target options.
                The configurations you choose become the default settings
                for all projects.
                You do have opportunities to change them later when

                    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.

                                        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.

                                        For example, suppose you created a

                                        In this situation, you would select

                        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>
                        After installing <filename>rpcbind</filename>, you
                        need to edit the
                        <filename>/etc/init.d/rpcbind</filename> file to
                        include the following line:

     OPTIONS="-i -w"
                        </literallayout>
                        After modifying the file, you need to start the
                        service:
                        <literallayout class='monospaced'>

        <para>
            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).

                    For QEMU, the default is "192.168.7.2".
                    However, if a previous QEMU session did not exit
                    cleanly, the IP address increments (e.g.
                    "192.168.7.3").
                    <note>
                        You can find the IP address for the current QEMU
                        session by looking in the xterm that opens when
                        you launch QEMU.

                    Assuming you are connecting as the root user,
                    which is the default for QEMU x86-64 SDK images provided by
                    the Yocto Project, in the "Remote Absolute File Path for
                    C/C++ Application" field, browse to
                    <filename>/home/root/</filename><replaceable>ProjectName</replaceable>
                    (e.g. <filename>/home/root/hello</filename>).
                    You could also browse to any other path you have write
                    access to on the target such as
                    <filename>/usr/bin</filename>.
                    This location is where your application will be located on
                    the QEMU system.
                    If you fail to browse to and specify an appropriate
                    location, QEMU will not understand what to remotely
                    launch.
                    Eclipse is helpful in that it auto fills your application
                    name for you assuming you browsed to a directory.

            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.
