Eclipse IDF install appears ok but Create IDF Project does nothing
Posted: Mon Dec 25, 2023 12:24 pm
I installed eclipse and IDF 5.1.2. on Win 10. Have not used them before but I want to migrate some projects to this environment.
Eclipse appears to install OK and I can create a project etc. Added Espressif IDF, tried about 10-20 times by different methods but got a long list of errors and things that don't work. Mostly I get to the point where it all looks good but "Create a new Espressif IDF project" does nothing, like I didn't even click on the button. I played with many things for 10-15 hours but still no success. Almost ready to give up and go back to Arduino
Any help/hints would be appreciated.
Thanks
Regards
Bill
