I'm having a problem configuring the Eclipse, CDT and AVR Plugin for use on a Mac OS X machine. I doubt the problem has anything directly to do with the plugin but I'm not sure and, besides, it gives me a chance to say thanks for a great tool.
Currently I'm able to successfully compile my project, but I get a " Error launching external scanner info generator" warning.
To quote "Error launching external scanner info generator (avr-gcc -E -P -v -dD /Users/mirage/Electronics/AVR/Eclipse/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.cdt.make.core/specs.c)"
I suspect that Eclipse is unable to find "avr-gcc" although when I start up a Mac OS terminal shell the command executes just fine. Any ideas on what is going on here? Is there a way to actually interact with the shell that Eclipse invokes so I can see what $PATHS are set up there?
Thanks
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Not a solution, but launching the eclipse executable in your eclipse directory
instead of launching eclipse.app cleared the warning and the include files are
discovered and added.

HI,
did you ever find a solution to the problem? There is a new from a user with
the same problem.
I am not familiar with OS X and I don't have access to a Mac to replicate the
problem.
