I had the mspgcc tools working on an older version of eclipse. After upgrading, I am having problems getting it started again.

I'm installing this on an XP home edition computer. I've downloaded the latest windows binaries of mspgcc from sourceforge and the latest(?) mspgcc eclipse plugin from http://homepage.hispeed.ch/py430/mspgcc/index.html I extracted the plugin into the eclipse directory.

Eclipse 3.1 obviously doesn't follow the example setup. But the compiler seems to be working. I can compile and run its output with msp430-gdb and it works just like compiling manually with msp430-gcc. However, I have had problems getting the debugging working properly. I get the following errors:



Error creating session: /cygdrive/c/Program Files/eclipse/C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\workspace\test/C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\workspace\test\Debug\test: No such file or directory. Error creating session: /cygdrive/c/Program Files/eclipse/C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\workspace\test/C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\workspace\test\Debug\test: No such file or directory. Error creating session: /cygdrive/c/Program Files/eclipse/C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\workspace\test/C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\workspace\test\Debug\test: No such file or directory.

Eclipse connects with msp430-gdbproxy and erases memory fine. Then it is terminated unless I set the load command in the gdb-target.ini to have an absolute (explicit) file name (complete path). In this case it will write part of the program before terminating. It looks like there are multiple internal variables being concatinated to generate the path to the target program.

Any ideas? misconfiguration...or is the plugin not compatible with this version?

Thanks
jim
