CQ:WIND00328654 Getting this fixed in CDT 8.0.2 would be great, such that workspace compatibility remains intact. Martin, Do you know if a migration delegate can be contributed separately like a launch delegate? The launch configuration type definition now lives in org.eclipse.cdt.debug.code and I am not quite sure we can implement migrate(...) without introducing a dependency on org.eclipse.cdt.launch.remote. Anna, AFAIK, there is no extension point to contribute a migration delegate separately. And if I'm not mistaken, even if a migration delegate is specified for a launch configuration type, the migration does not happen automatically. The user has to got the "Launch Configurations" preferences page to trigger the migration. Is this old enough that it is not a problem any more? I'm not sure we need to worry about CDT 7.0. Marking as WONTFIX. Feel free to re-open if you disagree. |
Build ID: CDT 8.0 (Indigo) Remote C/C++ Launches created in a workspace with CDT 7.0 are not migrated to CDT 8.0 format when upgrading Eclipse, but retaining the Workspace. This breaks the typically expected contract of Workspace compatibility, and is not mentioned in the New & Noteworthy. Customers complain that their pre-existing launches don't work any more. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch CDT 7.0, create a new REmote C/C++ Application Launch 2. Open the same workspace with CDT 8.0 -- the Launch is not visible any more. I think the problem is simply that the old launch configuration type was "org.eclipse.rse.remotecdt.RemoteApplicationLaunch" whereas the new type is now "org.eclipse.cdt.launch.remoteApplicationLaunchType" migration code should be added which copies the old Launches into the new ones the first time an old workspace is opened with CDT 8.0.x
