Re: Video showing how to use Eclipse for FRC 2013 development without plugins
Hi -
Thanks for the video, we even managed to get this working for a couple of Macs that students are using for development. However, the problem is that it doesn't cover getting the "deploy" then "run" Ant targets working, only "build". Deploy seems to work - as it just builds the jars to deploy, but run fails because it is missing a setting for a property that has the IP address of the robot (and there may be other things once you get past this). I am guessing it's because we haven't 'configured' the plugin by adding the team number.
Has anyone figured out the last step in this process? Can you re-install last year's plug-in, and then just update to the new Java classes for this year? Or is there something simpler ...
Next year all us Eclipse users need to get together, and get at least one team on the Beta test - so that we can have an Eclipse plugin for doing development without having to resort to NetBeans. I don't care about all the new features of WPILib and any fancy wizards for coding ... I just want to be able to extend the SimpleRobot and deploy it via Eclipse.
Thanks in advance if you figured this out.
