editor not working on windows [message #3204]

Hi

the CDT seems to be OK, C-files are parsed, objects shown but when trying to
edit them I get 'red error' and file not shown in editor.
I know the CDT is primary targeted for Linux but I really would like to see
the full plugin working as much as possible.

maybe this is in bugzilla, but I am not fun of bugzilla (mantis is so much
better), ok ok because of the Eclipse, I might learn bugzilla too.

I had the same problem however it appears I was using the wrong version of
Eclipse.

You need to the Eclipse R1.0 release for this plugin ... you probably moved
to the 2.0 stream as soon as you could (like I did) and don't even have the
R1.0 on your machine anymore ... I had to re-download it
(http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/index.html).

When I installed it into an R1.0 release the editor opens as expected on
Windows.

Hi Antti,

CDT is currently compatible with Eclipse R1.0, not the 2.0 development drivers.
Sorry about the confusion. We need to make this dependency much more obvious.

Although we don't target Windows ourselves, we know that much of CDT will work
there,
especially if you are using the Cygwin package from RedHat.

Would be a good idea to write it on your web page.

Anyway, why are you not supporting Windows ? I'd love to use the same
IDE on Linux as on Windows for my programming projects. I already use
the cygwin tools with gcc 3.0 on my win2k pc, so that it feels like the
unix box :-) Only a recent Eclipse is missing.

But I know you can do that :-)

Thanks
Daniel

Daniel, we would love to hear from developers who want to port and support
CDT on lots of different platforms, including Windows.

What kind of help do you need on windows platforms?

A good start might be to search the bugzilla for unconfirmed and new
bugs specific to CDT on Windows:

http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIR MED&bug_status=NEW&op_sys=Windows+98&op_sys=Wind ows+CE&op_sys=Windows+Me&op_sys=Windows+2000&op_ sys=Windows+NT&op_sys=Windows+XP&op_sys=Windows+All& amp;email1=&emailtype1=substring&emailassigned_to1=1 &email2=&emailtype2=substring&emailreporter2=1&a mp;bugidtype=include&bug_id=&changedin=&votes=&a mp;chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&prod uct=CDT&short_desc=&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&a mp;long_desc=&long_desc_type=allwordssubstr&keywords =&keywords_type=anywords&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0 -0=noop&value0-0-0=&cmdtype=doit&newqueryname=&a mp;order=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time

There are four of them now, and more will probably turn up over time.

Have fun //Johan
