Eclipse

Configure Eclipse to work with knitr

2012-02-27

A tutorial on using knitr in Eclipse by courtesy of Jenny Hutchison is available for download. It is probably too long for an experienced Eclipse user, and as a person who does not use Eclipse, I believe one screenshot can explain the setup:

knitr tool chain in Eclipse

You do not have to follow this. For example, you can run knit() first to get the tex document, and let Eclipse compile tex to PDF; in the above configuration, the two steps were combined into one knit2pdf(). See the post in the blog Dang, another error for the alternative way of configuration.

Thanks, Jenny!
