Losing buildroot Toolchain in Eclipse

Question

Losing buildroot Toolchain in Eclipse

srpearson opened this issue 11 years ago · comments

I am periodically losing the buildroot option from Toolchains (as well as the ability to compile previously working projects). What am I missing?

**** Build of configuration debug for project testsuite ****
Nothing to build for project testsuite

In the c/c++ Build under Configuration: debug[Active]
I get
Orphaned configuration. No base extension cfg exists for org.buildroot.home.simon.imx28.buildroot.output.exe.debug.317576807

My /Home/.buildroot-eclipse.toolchains file content is listed below:
/home/simon/imx28/buildroot/output:arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi-:arm

I am using:
Ubuntu 12.04
Eclipse Juno SR2 20130225-0426
Buildroot SDK Feature 2.0.0.2012030202033

This looks to be a workspace issue. I can create a Hello World project which compiles with the buildroot toolchain. As long as the workspace is not restarted, compilation is possible. After a restart of Eclipse, the issues described above occur.

I reproduce the problem, I am investigating to see how to fix it.

did you find something? I have the same problem with mint 14 (basically Ubuntu 12.10). i found the following in my log:

just in case someone is interested, my workaround for the moment is:

delete /.metadata
open eclipse, same
create new project, exact same settings

Yes, I understand what is the problem, now I will try to fix this issue during this week.

Hi @mbats,
could you please share your findings with us? This Problem is really annoying, I would like to find a better workaround until a patch is available. Maybe I could even fix it if I know what the problem is.

Mélanie Bats · Answer 6 · Wed May 22 2013 22:31:27 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

The problem is that instead of using the dynamic provider of CDT I am registering the toolchain by hand at Eclipse startup. Due to this, when the workspace is restarted, for CDT it is like if I have uninstalled and reinstalled the generated buildroot toolchain plugin and in this case the configurations do not keep the same ID. And the user see the orphaned configuration message.

I am currently rewriting the plugin by using the dynamic provider extension point provided by CDT. I am still working on this, new version will arrive soon.

Mélanie Bats · Answer 7 · Fri May 31 2013 23:29:42 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Fixed in 2.1.0.
