With adding you tubes stuff I mean adding overlays so people can jump quicker to what interest them. Like skip the history lesson ;-)
I do not want to extend the current video. I plan to add 2 more video's.
Or did I misunderstand?

When the video is getting too long people will not finish it. Did you think about splitting it into a number of videos?

                My input for the new and noteworthy

                So what is so new and impressive?
                1) The Arduino eclipse plugin now contains a boards
                and library manager like the arduino IDE.
                As such you do not have to go to the arduino ide to
                install/upgrade your boards.
                Actually you do not need the arduino ide at all.

                2) Install and play.
                If you go for the product you only need to install
                the product.(!!!!No need to install a arduino
                IDE!!!!!!)

                At first startup the plugin downloads the arduino
                avr boards and toolchains
                And configures itself.
                So no configuration is needed at all for Arduino
                avr boards.

                3) Auto include of the arduino libraries.
                In your code add #include "Library I use" and save
                the file. The library will be added to your project
                fully automatically.
                Try to delete it when you uses it. Won't work :-)
                Why? Because you use it it will be added back in
                fully automatically.


                4)Auto opening of serial monitor.
                Do you hate to open a serial connection in the
                serial monitor? Pressing plus, selecting the com
                port, selecting the baud rate and clicking ok.
                Now just select the project you want to connect to
                and press the open serial monitor button on the
                toolbar. Bingo you are connected.

                5)Better information integration
                The board and the port of your project is now
                visible in the project manager.

                6) Better support for ino files.
                Ino files are now fully supported in the toolchain.
                Which means: only ino files are only compiled if
                needed and also compilation will work with the
                standard eclipse build commands.

                7) For the die hards: multi arduino version support.
                In the arduino ide you can only have 1 version of a
                platform at a time. You can downgrade or upgrade
                the platform but not install 2 versions.
                The Arduino Eclipse plugin supports multiple (if
                you want all) versions. This way you do not have to
                upgrade all your projects (at once).

                Of-course there are also some bug fixes. But is
                that worth mentioning with the impressive list above?



                Op 23/01/2016 om 21:28 schreef Wim Jongman:
                Sure, no problem.

                        A small update on the progress
                        1) Get Teensy to work nicely
                        Done (Add [teensyduino]/hardware/teensy
                        to private paths
                        It works but the platform.txt needs to be

                        teensyduino) change this in teensyduino
                        1.2.8 (no idea when that will be released)

                        2) fix for 325
                        Done. I think this is a cool feature.
                        I want to add a turn on/off functionality
                        in case things go wrong (default on)

                        3) board name- port-baut rate in project
                        explorer (like the version control tools
                        do but I don't find how :-( )
                        Done but I skipped the baud rate for a
                        cool reason

                        4) complete #349
                        Done.
                        I want to add a turn on/off functionality
                        in case things go wrong (default on)

                        5) fix for 347
                        Done
                        But I would like input from wim on "why
                        is the plugin is still using the old
                        location".
                        Can you debug
                        it.baeyens.arduino.common.getInstallationPath()
                        on your system? Please...
                        I think this may be related to the things
                        in 7

                        6) documentation (all your items)
                        Still open

                        7) testing
                        Kind of like started as we are now on the
                        nightly.
                        2 people (both linux) reported problems
                        which look like failing dowload
                        
https://github.com/jantje/arduino-eclipse-plugin/issues/353
                        
https://github.com/jantje/arduino-eclipse-plugin/issues/354

                        Seems like there is some issue left there.


                        I also would like to fix 311 (normal
                        build does not generate .ino.cpp)
                        This because default now a build is
                        started and that one fails if you have a
                        ino project which is any project stated
                        from a sample.

                        Since you can now see the beauty of
                        branches, how about using git flow. I
                        am happy to give anyone a short

                        would be great.

                        What are the things that still need to

                        ### Documentation.

                        ### Fixes
                        * The long path problem
                        * Keeping hold of the installation path
                        * Moving the install_path application
                        parameter to a java property?
