- The Eclipse IDE is a popular development environment and it fully
- supports development using the Yocto Project.
- When you install and configure the Eclipse Yocto Project Plug-in
- into the Eclipse IDE, you maximize your Yocto Project experience.
- Installing and configuring the Plug-in results in an environment
- that has extensions specifically designed to let you more easily
- develop software.
- These extensions allow for cross-compilation, deployment, and
- execution of your output into a QEMU emulation session.
- You can also perform cross-debugging and profiling.
- The environment also supports many performance-related
