IAR has already done this for many other architectures already, but how hard can it be anyway to integrate the most popular open source IDE with the World's best compiler/debugger and proceeded to make a fairly quick hash out of it(meaning I took triple the time I expected).
However their tried and tested beta plugin is already available on request provided you have the corresponding software and firmware. If like me however you don't have the requisite cross compilers and platforms but are working on the humble IAR EW MSP43. It can be done.
The steps shown here do not depend on any plugin. The end result will not allow debugging with the stand alone (or integrated- how lucky can you get?) C-spy debugger, but only the integration of projects into Eclipse for static analysis and use of 3rd party plugins like the super cool Unit and Integration tester Eclipse plugin I developed. Available for a measly $2500 dollars . This of course are my primary reasons for marrying the two software together.
Have a good time ! Remember back up all your work and if you mess up, its at your own risk !
