In previous versions of Eclipse I have been able to open a view that presented a serial terminal/console.

How do I do this in Eclipse Juno?

I have a “Terminals” view open and it has text that says:

To open a terminal, right-click the Terminal subsystem under the target. Then select 'Launch Terminal' from the context menu.

I really have no idea what this is talking about and I’ve been using Eclipse for several years now!

Can someone shed some light on this?

EDIT:
I’ve discovered that the “Terminal Subsystem under the target”, refers to the “Remote Systems” view. I can’t find any options for a serial terminal though.

    To use a serial terminal in Eclipse Juno.

    1: Install the software for serial terminals:

    Navigate to: Help -> Install New Software…

    Dropdown list for Work with: to say Juno - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno

    Select: Mobile and Device Development, especially Target Management Terminal which is “An ANSI (vt102) compatible Terminal including plug-ins for Serial, SSH and Telnet connections.”

    Click Next and anything else to finish the install …

    2: Open the view

    Navigate to: Window -> Show View -> Other … -> Terminal -> Terminal (NOTE: singular Terminal, not plural Terminals)

    3: Open a terminal

    The rest should be fairly obvious as the view contains icons to Connect, Disconnect, Settings, etc which are related to Serial, SSH and Telnet connections.
