Now you can create a new Arduino project with the plugin Set the auto save before build on to avoid different version between uploaded and visible code. In general try to avoid spaces in names.Ģ.1) download the code from here Eclipse Downloads | The Eclipse FoundationĢ.2) Unzip the file downloaded from eclipse( I assume c:/indigo)ģ.2) run the program c:/indigo/eclipse/eclipse.exeģ.3) give a name to the workspace (I assume you use “Arduino”)ģ.6) Enter the information as below (select the newest version of the plugin)ģ.7) restart eclipse (as requested by eclipse)Ĥ.1) open the preferences (windows → preferences)įill it in like below (using your Arduino IDE location)Ĥ.3)Following setting in general-> work space is not needed but advised: UPDATE: If you have a space in your Arduino Path or project name the plugin will not work. Note that the current version (1.0.8 ) works on windows only. I use those and I can compile the code between the Arduino IDE and eclipse without changes.

Below are some simple instructions on how to keep your code Arduino IDE compatible. The current version works with cpp files only (no pde out of the box).
As you only need the Arduino IDE, Eclipe and the plugin this Arduino IDE alternative is completely free and open source.
There is a free eclipse plugin available that makes development of big Arduino projects easier.
Latest version are tested and running on MAC
