Eclipse: Which plug-ins needed, what else, how to build?

I already have an existing installation (which i want to keep), therefore i think i cannot install eclipse package offered for FX3.

Can someone tell me which additional plug-ins / tools i need for building firmware files in eclipse?

What i found so far:

- genmakebuilder

- ScannerConfigBuilder

But where do i get them?

The second problem: How to compile a firmware file in eclipse? I often have seen a note that this is described

in chapter 11 or so, but where do i find this chapter 11?

What i have done so far: File->Import, General->Existing Projects into workspace->Next and select path of .project as root directory. Then Project->BuildProject. But nothing happens...Are my steps correct?

Where do i configure the path of the ARM compiler? Or must it be at a fixed location?

Hi,

check the FX3 programmers Manual, chapter 12. There is a description about the developement Tools and it's usage.

 

Regards!
