Build Identifier: Helios SR1 CPP build 20100917-0705 x86_64

When I attempt to add the optional org.eclipse.cdt.debug.gdbjtag feature to a pristine Helios SR1 CPP installation, the main org.eclipse.cdt feature is downgraded from 7.0.1 to 7.0.0.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install and start eclipse-cpp-helios-SR1-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
2. add update site http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/helios
3. install org.eclipse.cdt.debug.gdbjtag feature (v7.0.0.201009141542)
4. restart eclipse
5. observe org.eclipse.cdt feature is now v7.0.0.201006141710

I'll take a look

I think this could've been solved by bug 321692. Where is today's build?

Scratch that, the other bug is for 8.0 stream.

The org.eclipse.cdt.debug.gdbjtag feature specified an invalid dependency:

<import feature="org.eclipse.cdt.gnu.debug" version="6.0.0"/>

(o.e.cdt.gnu.debug feature is now at 7.0.1)


I've removed the invalid dependency and my test build looks promising.  Kicking off a new build now to verify the fix.

Here's the build with the fix:

http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/builds/7.0.1/I.I201009241320/index.html

Please give that a try.

This is not an issue for CDT HEAD since all dependencies are removed by bug 321692.

Vivian, thanks for looking at this so promptly. I'm downloading the zip archive now and will test.

The reported issue is a major inconvenience for CDT users who require GDB Hardware Debugging support and update with the formal releases only.

Is there any possibility of getting the fix into the
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/helios site before Helios SR2?
