This plugin enable building and running CDT projects generated by Papyrus-RT whithin the IDE itself. This plugin extends the code generator to patch the generated .cproject file by adding the missing linker libraries.

More specifically, the plugin adds $UMLRTS_ROOT/lib/linux.x86-gcc-4.6.3 to the libraries path and the two libraries rts and pthread as dependencies.

Obviously, you will need g++ and make to build the CDT project. On Windows, these can be installed via Cygwin.

In addition, the plugin assumes that the directory $UMLRTS_ROOT/lib/linux.x86-gcc-4.6.3 contains the RTS library, i.e. librts.a. By default, Papyrus-RT ships with a version of the RTS compatible with most Linux systems. For Windows and macOS, you need to manually build the RTS first (see Installation).

Simply grab the latest release and drop it in the plugin folder of your Papyrus-RT installation.

On macOS, you need to build the RTS by running make in $UMLRTS_ROOT. If the build process fails, you might need to patch the RTS first by following the instructions here.

On Windows, you need to install Cygwin with the following packages:

• gcc-g++
• make
• cmake

Then, navigate to $UMLRTS_ROOT from a Cygwin terminal and run the following

mkdir rtsbuild && cd rtsbuild
cmake ..
make
mv librtsd.a ../lib/linux.x86-gcc-4.6.3/librts.a

• On macOS 'High Sierra', the CDT project might fail to run with a 'cannot create pty' error. This is due to a bug in older versions of Eclipse CDT. You need to update the org.eclipse.cdt.core.macosx plugin included with Papyrus-RT. The lastest version can be obtained from the CDT p2 repository.
