44 An Anjuta IDE plugin exists to make developing software within the Poky framework
45 easier for the application developer. It presents a graphical IDE from which the
46 developer can cross compile an application then deploy and execute the output in a QEMU
47 emulation session. It also supports cross debugging and profiling.

62 To use the plugin, a toolchain and SDK built by Poky is required along with Anjuta and the Anjuta
63 plugin. The Poky Anjuta plugin is available from the OpenedHand SVN repository located at
64 http://svn.o-hand.com/repos/anjuta-poky/trunk/anjuta-plugin-sdk/; a web interface
65 to the repository can be accessed at <ulink url='http://svn.o-hand.com/view/anjuta-poky/'/>.
66 See the README file contained in the project for more information
67 about the dependencies and how to get them along with details of
68 the prebuilt packages.
