[yocto] Can't create a new project with Yocto BitBake Commander plugin

[Daniel Lazzari]

Hi Jessica,

I want a Bitbake Commander project as I'll be creating and editing
recipes, classes, and configuration files. I am using the Bernard
release I downloaded from
http://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads/poky/poky-bernard-5.0.tar.bz2
though I renamed the directory to Yocto. I am using the 1.0 Eclipse
plugin. I did have a build directory so I moved that outside of the
Yocto directory, but still no luck.

Thanks for the help,
Daniel Lazzari Jr.

If so that maybe the reason prevent a new bitbake commander project being created since the build dir can contain large contents that Eclipse IProject tree view can't handle, so the work around is to move your build dir outside your Yocto checkout through oe-init-build-env path_of_build_dir...
