I can't set breakpoints to a running program. I can set them before I start debugging or when the program stops at some breakpoint, but not during running the program. This is the most annoying of CDT bugs I've found.

My projects are Qt and regular static library C++ projects. My CDT version is 7.0.1. I tried to install 7.0.2 but couldn't. The installer said that packages were already installed, so it would perform an update instead but wouldn't let me click the finish button. So the installer is also broken.

Also other bugs: I have a static library and other projects depend on it (Qt projects). When I make changes to the static library and try to build another project that depends on it, the static library is built, but the other project is not relinked.

I also consider this as a bug (but maybe there's a fix for it that I just haven't found?). In Eclipse help window the default font is too small to read. The letters are like 1mm high. I simply can't read them. Is there a way to make them bigger? I tried fiddling with window->preferences->appearance->colors and fonts but couldn't find a setting that would change the font in help window.

Edit: My OS is Windows 7.

I filed a bug about the broken installer and relinking problem. They are the bugs 349414 and 348887. Feel free to vote them!

There was already a bug about setting the breakpoints (bug 346584). So I voted that. Someone got interested in it. That's a positive thing.
