How to install Dr. Garbage "bytecode visualizer" in Eclipse? [message #1798025] Sat, 10 November 2018 11:40
Eclipse UserFriend
I'm following this guide but got stuck at point n.3: crowdstrike.com/blog/native-java-bytecode-debugging-without-source-code/

If I open Eclipse Marketplace and search "dr. garbage" or "bytecode visualizer" I don't find it. However, if I paste in the search box the eclipse marketplace link, then I can see it.

However, no "install" button is available

index.php/fa/34302/0/

I guess that means I have to install it manually?

So, I went online and downloaded this: github.com/george-hopkins/drgarbagetools

and this: sourceforge.net/projects/drgarbagetools/

Last download link gives me "content.jar" while the first just a bunch of folders that you can see listed. I've placed "content.jar" in the same directory of the folders and, from Eclipse, did this:

Help -> Install new software
Add repository, Local

index.php/fa/34303/0/

However, I get this error:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: Bytecode Visualizer 4.5.0.201508311741 (com.drgarbage.bytecodevisualizer.feature.group 4.5.0.201508311741)
  Missing requirement: Bytecode Visualizer 4.5.0.201508311741 (com.drgarbage.bytecodevisualizer.plugin 4.5.0.201508311741) requires 'osgi.bundle; org.eclipse.core.runtime [3.7.0,3.12.0)' but it could not be found
  Cannot satisfy dependency:
    From: Bytecode Visualizer 4.5.0.201508311741 (com.drgarbage.bytecodevisualizer.feature.group 4.5.0.201508311741)
    To: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu; com.drgarbage.bytecodevisualizer.plugin [4.5.0.201508311741,4.5.0.201508311741]


Can you please tell me how to install this tool? Or any equivalent that would allow me to debug a jar at runtime and to compile back decompiled bytecode (I'm using Volcano, a GUI version of Krakatau, to decompile the jar file).

Many thanks!
