Setting Up Eclipse IDE for Atmel AVR Development and ISP Programming Interface

Please see corrections on my site regards setting up Eclipse IDE to develop for Atmel devices Unfortunately today I discovered the latest update doesn’t actually work, although if you did this some time ago this would have been A OK

You can find the corrected link on http://www.harrington.force9.co.uk/Projects/Atmel/atmelindex.htm with tutorials and other links to Atmel projects

I’ve also built an interface that will allow you to program the Atmel range via ISP all details are on this page for you

Evereything should now be A ok ready for you to at least begin with some of these projects

I should mention is you want at least 2gb of ram to run this and a fairly fast up to date processor and mother bourd min dual core suggested

If you are thinking of developing for android then you will need eclipse for mobile developers The previous versions that have been recommended don’t actually work when you perform updates for some unknown reason

The updates mess up the IDE
So here is the correct address of where you can get this from

http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-mobile-developers/junosr1

Also if developing for android then you want to download the Java Sdk first from here http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html before downloading the ide otherwise you wont get Eclipse to launch

Make sure you uninstall any previous versions of java before you start new install but then that applies generally

Why they do this I really dont know talk about waste an entire day trying to sort this one out You can imagine what this does to Industry nevermind the frustration or any of the other probelsm this causes just for the sake of checking Still Not to worry we now have a corrected version which works

I also recommend downloading net beans latest edition select all This way you get glass fish server or tomcat http://netbeans.org/downloads/index.html

Again make sure you uninstall previous versions before installing latest edition

It might also help if you perform a registry clean up as well after this to remove any previous entries but thats a little bit of advise from someone who knows just how difficult this gets at times, "Not that i expect to many people take notice but we can but try "

Followed by the Android SDK http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html
and do all updates before starting All instructions are outlined on this page

Not exactley what you might term as being helpfull to people whishing to study, initiate assignments ot simply try to take on new skill

Or Costs in internet time
Or solving an unemployment crisis where we are facing really hard times ahead

Funny !! No I dont think so either Of course this wasnt the only problem SDCC or small device compiler was uin fact another problem that would not install correctly either

With no answers to questions as per normal
