Creating a Test RealTime configuration in Eclipse

Test RealTime for Eclipse CDT

A Test RealTime configuration is based on a Target Deployment Port (TDP), which contains all the parameters that are required to run your application in a given environment. This enables you to switch your application from a native CDT environment to a remote embedded platform.

Each Test RealTime configuration contains configuration settings that allow you to tailor the TDP to a specific project. Configuration settings are a set of compiler and tool options.

Inside a configuration, you can individually override any default configuration setting for any single project element in the C/C++ project.

Before working with an C/C++ project in Eclipse, you must create a configuration for Test RealTime. This creates a Test RealTime project folder inside your workspace, which contains your configurations.

To create a Test RealTime configuration:

  1. In the Eclipse workbench, select File > New > Other > IBM Rational Test RealTime > Test RealTime Configuration and click Next.

  2. Click Browse to select the C/C++ project that contains the application that you want to test and type a name for the new Configuration.

  3. Click Finish.
