Hi dear gurus. I want to make changes in JDT code. I downloaded everything from the https://github.com/orgs/eclipse-jdt/repositories, compiled it, but when I put a breakpoint, it stops not in my code, but in the jar file that is a host and not a target.

How can I make simple change to see my changes in target platform?

From within the IDE where you have the JDT code you need to launch a new Eclipse Application, a so-called self-hosted launch, and that will use the plugin in the workspace such that you can debug them.

Thank you Ed
I added the screenshot where is visible that I add launcher as "Eclipse Application". I also try to play with "Run a product", try different applications from the combo box. But no difference. In top of screen visible that instead of stop on my breakpoint it stops in appropriate *.jar file.

Below I also attached the other tabs of my launcher.

Sorry, I didn't see your picture the first time. It doesn't look like you really imported the projects as projects but rather imported the entire Maven folder as a single project. You won't be able to launch from that form.

Better you use the automated setup to create the development environment such that the projects are properly imported individually:

Dear Ed. Do you know the same place for CDT, where I can get sources and make my changes on the CDT itself, as I can do with JDT? Because I cant find the same place for CDT. And when I select CDT in installer manually/JDT checkboxes was checked automatically/ it gives error during installation.

Probably you had this error:

ERROR: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director code=0 Missing requirement: artificial_root 1.0.0.v1659515430790 requires 'org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu; org.eclipse.pde.api.tools.ee.feature.feature.group 0.0.0' but it could not be found

That feature has been removed in the 4.25 (2022-09) stream. CDT needs to remove it from their setup to fix this problem; I'll try to help fix it for them...

To avoid the problem for now, I suggest choosing the Committers product (not the Eclipse SDK product) and picking the 2022-06 version on the first page of the installer. That worked for me just now; mostly, I did have timeouts resolving the target platform and and to do Help -> Perform Setup Tasks... a second time to get it to work. Then I still have timeouts cloning https://git.eclipse.org/r/cdt/org.eclipse.cdt but I tried ssh://emerks@git.eclipse.org:29418/cdt/org.eclipse.cdt which finally worked, but you need to set up Gerrit for that:

Dear Ed, I installed Commiters 2022-06 (before that was 2022-03) version as you suggested. I also have timeouts on cloning by https and I have some difficulties with Gerrit set up. As I have no bug to fix for CDT. I just want to investigate some rename dialog on CDT. By the way I always clone directly from command line git master branch (if I should take an other version please correct me).
But it gives me 2000+ errors
index.php/fa/42373/0/

If I skip them all and try to run anyway. The target eclipse(CDT) does not allow to create some project.

Thank you

The setups are there to eliminate the "sea of red" that you typically get from just cloning and just importing projects and hoping for the best. BTW, I opened this bug to contribute fixes to the CDT.setup, but they are in the processing migrating the project to github:
