9 This release of the Yocto Project supports both the Neon and Mars
10 versions of the Eclipse IDE.
11 This appendix presents information that describes how to obtain and
12 configure the Mars version of Eclipse.
13 It also provides a basic project example that you can work through
14 from start to finish.
15 For general information on using the Eclipse IDE and the Yocto
16 Project Eclipse Plug-In, see the

554 You can create two types of projects: Autotools-based, or
555 Makefile-based.
556 This section describes how to create Autotools-based projects
557 from within the Eclipse IDE.
558 For information on creating Makefile-based projects in a
559 terminal window, see the
560 "<link linkend='makefile-based-projects'>Makefile-Based Projects</link>"
561 section.

563 Do not use special characters in project names

716 <note>
717 The host on which you are running QEMU must have
718 the <filename>rpcbind</filename> utility running to be
719 able to make RPC calls on a server on that machine.
720 If QEMU does not invoke and you receive error messages
721 involving <filename>rpcbind</filename>, follow the
722 suggestions to get the service running.
723 As an example, on a new Ubuntu 16.04 LTS installation,
724 you must do the following in order to get QEMU to
725 launch:
726 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
727 $ sudo apt-get install rpcbind
728 </literallayout>
729 After installing <filename>rpcbind</filename>, you
730 need to edit the
731 <filename>/etc/init.d/rpcbind</filename> file to
732 include the following line:
733 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
734 OPTIONS="-i -w"
735 </literallayout>
736 After modifying the file, you need to start the
737 service:

739 $ sudo service portmap restart

766
767 <para>
768 Once the QEMU emulator is running the image, you can deploy
769 your application using the Eclipse IDE and then use
770 the emulator to perform debugging.
771 Follow these steps to deploy the application.
772 <note>
773 Currently, Eclipse does not support SSH port forwarding.
774 Consequently, if you need to run or debug a remote
775 application using the host display, you must create a
776 tunneling connection from outside Eclipse and keep
777 that connection alive during your work.
778 For example, in a new terminal, run the following:
779 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
780 $ ssh -XY <replaceable>user_name</replaceable>@<replaceable>remote_host_ip</replaceable>
781 </literallayout>
782 Using the above form, here is an example:
783 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
784 $ ssh -XY root@192.168.7.2
785 </literallayout>
786 After running the command, add the command to be executed
787 in Eclipse's run configuration before the application
788 as follows:
789 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
790 export DISPLAY=:10.0
791 </literallayout>
792 Be sure to not destroy the connection during your QEMU
793 session (i.e. do not
794 exit out of or close that shell).
