I believe this thread should remain open because it was, up until its closure, one of the main places to discuss matters relating to what is a current Arduino tool, that is the Sloeber Eclipse development environment. Windows/Linux/Mac Eclipse plugin to compile and upload arduino sketches
Incidentally, I had thought that the standard way to get a closed thread re-opened was to use the "flag" icon on a post in the thread and add a note. With this thread this was not possible. The "flag post" hotspot image is inaccessible:
Many thanks. I guess when Sloeber is stable and well understood, people don't feel the need to talk about it. Anyway, a relatively new release has emerged . . .
