Hi @dcpleung

Do you have any idea how to solve this issue?

Could you try older version of Eclipse (2020-06 or 2020-03)? Sometimes Eclipse updates its APIs which breaks the plugin, and requires some workarounds.

I currently don't have time to look into it. Appreciate if you could find out which Eclipse version works, as it will narrow down the list of commits I have to look at upstream. Thanks.

Same issue here.

OS: macOS 11.2
Eclipse: 2021-06

I think it has something to do with the pinctrl.dtsi not being found?

Interestingly the error above only appears the first time after a 'clean'.

If I run a second time the error message changes to "Symbol 'CONFIG_BOARD' could not be resolved"

And if I comment out the printk line, no error, but build still not succesful

@jorisoffouga were you able to solve the issue, @dcpleung is there a fix?

[dcpleung]

I don't have time to look into it right now. The latest supported Eclipse version should be 2020-03. If possible, please use the older Eclipse version at the moment.
