Edvin- Thanks, I switched to SES last night at the prompting of another user. What a difference! It felt like I was in a constant fight with Eclipse, SES worked perfectly right off!

Hello,

We do not support Eclipse officially. Note that I am not saying it is not possible, but because of many different versions, and setup options (like you are experiencing), this is not something we maintain, and hence do not support.

I suggest you check out Segger Embedded Studio, which is Segger's IDE. It is free to use with Nordic's licence.

See this video on how to set it up.

I created a virtual folder with a link to the main.c in the SDK code. I can see it in the project and it compiles and shows code in C/C++ perspective.
I also created a Debug Configuration. I have other projects that compile and debug just fine (although Eclipse seems to not load the files occasionally).

I have had very poor response with Eclipse debugging, seems very buggy, now I can't get it to work at all. It totally could be a configuration issue, I followed the Nordic setup that I found in DevZone

[quote userid="76999" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/44746/eclipse-not-working/175684"] I am just telling Eclipse to Debug![/quote]

For any IDE to be able to do source-level debugging, it needs two things:

The IDE must know where the source files are;
The IDE must have the Debug Information for the executable code.

So have you got all that set up ?

This is BEFORE I even run it. I am just telling Eclipse to Debug!
