Hi, 
 
I am using Eclipse R2.0.2 on Windows 2000, with CDT 1.0.1. 
I have made a minimum C++ project (only 1 file with just main()!). 
 
First problem: I can't build: nothing happens and I can see in the log: 
 
java.lang.NullPointerException 
 at  org.eclipse.cdt.internal.core.CBuilder.invokeMake(CBuilder.j ava:153) 
(...) 
 
So I used my own build command => it worked fine! 
 
I can Run it, it works fine (euhh, in the "Launch properties" dialog, "C/C++ 
application" / "search" shows nothing, I have too specify my application by 
myself ???!). 
 
 
Finally, I can't debug it, because when I launch the debugger I have: 
 
org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException[150]: 
org.eclipse.cdt.debug.core.cdi.CDIException: Error initializing: Exec 
error:Launching failed 
 at 
 org.eclipse.cdt.debug.mi.core.GDBDebugger.createLaunchSessio n(GDBDebugger.ja 
va:47) 
 
 
That makes a lot of troubles. Is my configuration not stable? Did I mess 
somewhere? 
 
Thanks a lot!

Are you sure you specify makefile or/and path to make utility?

Make sure that you use correct version of gdb and path to gdb specifies 
rightly

You have to use standard "make" utility which you usually is situated in 
C/C++ compilers such as MSVC and GCC. Also you have to write makefile.  
Or you can use "External Tools" options of the project...
