Latestest CDT builds: problems installing [message #59928] Tue, 28 January 2003 10:10 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi all,

There have been some sporadic problems reported regarding installing the CDT
in both Eclipse 2.0.x and 2.1.

The following is a guide to installing the CDT and a workaround for this
intermittent problem

If you unzip the bin.dist.zip file into the eclipse directory:

1) Be sure that all previous installations of the CDT have
been removed from your plugins and features directories
2) If the Install/Update manager will not let you install the CDT saying
something to the effect of Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools (Windows)
requires Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools 1.0.1
a) Eclipse will still install the plugins but it will disable them.
(Disabled plugins are not visible in the default view)
b) In the Install/Update Perspective, Install Configuration View
i) select the icon to show disabled features
ii) The Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools (Windows) will show as
disabled
iii) Click the "Enable" button in the Details Preview View
iv) Both plugins should now be fully enabled.

I will continue to look into why this is happening and hope to have it
solved in the near future

I've tried this and it still doesn't work - but I did find a possible
cause. This is the error I get after pressing "Enable" in the
Install/Update Manager:

Error creating feature "file:/C:/Program Files/eclipse/eclipse
2.0.2/features/org.eclipse.cdt_1.0.1.jar/".[java.io.FileNotFoundException:
C:\Program Files\eclipse\eclipse
2.0.2\features\org.eclipse.cdt_1.0.1.jar\feature.xml

The problem seems to be that it's looking for
"features/org.eclipse.cdt_1.0.1.jar", when the zip expansion actually
creates "features/org.eclipse.cdt_1.0.1" (no ".jar").

Does this help?

When I attempted to perform step 2)iii) in your workaround, I continue to
get an error. It indicates:

Error creating feature
"file:C:IDE/eclipse/features/org.eclipse.cdt_1.0.1.jar".
[java.io.FileNotFoundException:
C:\IDE\eclipse\features\org.eclipse.cdt_1.0.1.jar\feature.xm l (The system
cannot find the path specified)].

Obviously, feature.xml is in
"C:\IDE\eclipse\features\org.eclipse.cdt_1.0.1\" not
"C:\IDE\eclipse\features\org.eclipse.cdt_1.0.1.jar\"...

I was unable to come up with a workaround though. Ideas?

Which platform are you working on?
I cannot reproduce the failure of the workaround on Win32 with Eclipse
2.0.1, 2.0.2 or M4.

I am looking at the build regarding the reference to
C:\IDE\eclipse\features\org.eclipse.cdt_1.0.1.jar, which is obviously not
correct.

Thanks

As acknowledged by me in thread "Problems with CE installation" this
happened to me in Eclipse 2.0.2 build 200211071448, and CDT 1.0.1 GA -
Windows, on Windows XP (SP 1). Same cause of error
(FileNotFoundException on the .jar/feature.xml). Have Eclipse installed
in c:/Program Files/eclipse.

I have the plugin working now, by reinstalling 1.0.0 CDT build, while
leaving 1.0.1 in the file system. Getting warnings that the main plugin
(1.0.0) is using 1.0.1 packages instead of 1.0.0 packages, so it seems
to pick what I want.

I also have the problem described in thread "CDT Debugging", which might
be due to the upgrade to 1.0.1, or to my upgrade of GDB to 2003-1-28.
