If your team is like mine and has a bunch of old cRIOs laying around for prototyping use or installed on old robots to use for demonstrations and such, and you've been programming them using C++, you may have recently found yourself unable to program them anymore due to an expired WindRiver Workbench license!
Well, we've developed a relatively simple to use plug-in for Eclipse that enables teams to continue to develop programs for their old cRIOs without WindRiver Workbench. This enables cRIO development alongside current roboRIO-based development in the same IDE.
If this interests you and your team, you can get the plug-in by following the instructions on the project page over at Teamforge:

The instructions and Eclipse update site link are on the Wiki page:

Thanks go to Patrick Plenefisch of WPI for bundling the toolchain that backs the plugin.
