I have a simple headless IApplication that allows running Eclipse launches (CDI based) from the command line. It seems this is broken in 7 due to the workbench capabilities being added to Launch: Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Workbench has not been created yet. at org.eclipse.ui.PlatformUI.getWorkbench(PlatformUI.java:92) at org.eclipse.cdt.launch.LaunchUtils.enableActivity(LaunchUtils.java:127) at org.eclipse.cdt.launch.AbstractCLaunchDelegate.<init>(AbstractCLaunchDelegate.java:128) at com.broadcom.cdt.debug.launch.Launch.<init>(Launch.java:49) at com.broadcom.cdt.debug.launch.GDBLaunch.<init>(GDBLaunch.java:54) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:27) at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Constructor.java:513) at java.lang.Class.newInstance0(Class.java:355) at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:308)
There seem to be a whole bunch of new UI dependencies, including status handlers for save before launch, etc. I'll put together a patch.
Sigh. I'm a little behind HEAD. I see that in 1.70 ken removed #enableActivity call in the AbstractCLaunchDelegate constructor. Seems like there's no CDT specific change required.

James, the launch plugin has had dependency on UI plugins for quite some time, so there are no build-time guards against adding a UI call in a particular part of the plugin. If there was a code path that was UI-free in the past, and we can reasonably keep it that way, then we should try to. But, again, there's no practical/easy way to guarantee those paths remain UI-free going forward other than to refactor the launch plugin into core and ui plugins.
(In reply to comment #3) > James, the launch plugin has had dependency on UI plugins for quite some time, I guess before 7 we've been lucky. We could always add the headless launch IApp to CDT if that's of interest to anyone else.
