Using Windows 2000, Eclipse 3.1.0, CDT 2.0.1
Thanks for help

Does it work after changing the source?
"Launching failed" is very annoying and appears always after a clean
build. After that I'm used to insert or delete a "space" somewhere in
the source, so that the debugging starts after a "small build". That's
also necessary, when I forgot to finish the programm, before starting a
new build.
When trying the eclipse 3.1 release some days ago, there was one project
(momemtary primary) that was absolutly unable to launch debugger. I
tried several times to get a working debug configuration, but it always
looses the entry of the exe-file. But minimum 4 other projects (I didn't
test more) started without problems, so it must be a mistake inside of
this special environment configuration. In the end this release only
lasts two or three hours, before restoring the usable environment 3.0.
I don't think, it's a "stupid users problem", but something inside the
eclipse environment. It might help to use the old eclipse together with
CDT 2.0, or wait for the new CTD to use with 3.1.
If it prooves as a windows problem there might be a connection to
windows ignorance of upper-/lowercase letters - but this also could be
an arbitrary supposition.

You need to install CDT 3.0 for Eclipse 3.1.0 not CDT 2.0.1

Yes, it does. Seems a little bit more coloured.

I'm using Eclipse 3.0 now for approximately one year and there are 14
projects in the workbench. There is a high probability, that I know how
to use eclipse together with MinGW. ;o)

I'm using managed make. There is one directory with eclipse 3.0 and one
with eclipse 3.1 and a copy of my workbench directory. Starting eclipse
3.1 it loads the workbench with all my projects, tells me of some
data-type-conversion and finally doesn't launch my current primary
project, because of not recognizing -mwindows (The error message was a
copy out of console). Restoring the original workbench (without
conversions) and starting 3.0, I can continue to work. So it's not a
problem to me, that I cannot use 3.1, but I think the RC is ment, to
find out, whether there are problems of the new software. It seems to
me, there is one. I also made a copy of converted workbench, so if there
are detailed questions, I could tell quite fast.
