Description tcrowley CLA 2010-04-30 09:55:28 EDT
Eclipse platform: 3.5.2 "Galileo"
CDT version: 6.0.2, using cygwin gcc

CDT seems to work fine generally,  not done much with the debugger so far.

One minor problem:

When compile errors occur, and one mouses over the error in the source file, a dialogue box pops up containing text describing the error. This text is the same as would be displayed on the command line in cygwin when calling gcc from the command line (the specific error portion, after the line number etc.). However, the dialogue box in Eclipse replaces all forward ticks "`" with a string of usually two characters that I cannot duplicate here (from some alternate character set it appears). Also these replacements characters, or jibberish, seems to change from time to time, not sure what triggers the change.

The error is taken from the console which is having encoding issues.
