Hello,

I hope someone can help with the following:

plugin org.eclipse.equinox.register
On pressing windows->preferences->ds-5->toolchain
I get error log:
"Unable to create the selected preference page."
Caused by: java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in scheme name at index 7: initial@reference:file:../../../host_tools/mentor/gnu/arm/plugins/com.altera.ds5ae.toolchain.gcc.baremetal_18.1.0.201809130816.jar

at com.arm.eclipse.build.toolchains.ToolchainManager.convertToURI(ToolchainManager.java:129)
... 193 more

Hi

com.arm.eclipse.build.toolchains.ToolchainManager.convertToURI(ToolchainManager.java:132)

looks to be the problem.

initial@reference:file:..

is an internal encoding for a bundle. You have picked a seemingly attractive getURI/getLocation method that doesn't do what you want.

Use org.eclipse.core.runtime.FileLocator to get useable URLs.

Hi Ed,
Thanks.
I am a bit new on all this.
I actually just installed latest intel's DS-5 from their web site.
How do I change this "initial@reference:file:.." in eclipse?

Thank you,
ran

Hi

If it's not your code, you should ask on the developers support channel. It looks like a bug. But maybe it is the way you use it.
