Installing openOCD break sloeber (in V4 not V5)

[PerennialNovice]

I have fresh install of Sloeber Product v4.4.3 on Win11

I install openOCD debugging plugin from "Help -> Install New Software"

Sloeber needs to be restarted, after restart I get a small window stating that "An error has occured"

This is the contents of the .log file in worksapce/.metadata:

Something obviously went wrong when installing the plugin.
This is "normal" in eclipse world and is why you should always make a backup before installing something.
I do not see any obvious sloeber related issue in the error log

java.lang.RuntimeException: Application "org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench" could not be found in the registry. The applications available are: io.sloeber.application ....

You can see application in eclipse environment as the main function; therefore one could call in C/C++ "the function main could not be found". This is eclipse however so there can be multiple applications.
As you can see the sloeber application is listed as "available" but sloeber application is using the org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench application.
I have no clue what this all means.

[PerennialNovice]

To be honest, I am somewhat relieved that even you don't know what's going on :)

You might like to hear, that in v5 there is no problem installing openOCD...

[jantje]

I didn't want to mention it because I hardly do hardware debugging on Arduino but: I do not understand why you try to install "openOCD" and what it is.
As far as I know the platforms with boards that can be debugged natively with openOCD come with openOCD and CDT can communicate with the delivered openOCD directly (maybe via gdb I'm not well versed in the details).
For the boards that do not have native debugging capabilities; you need a "piece of hardware" and that should come with drivers (or instructions on how to get/install them) and every time I tried/did that CDT could talk to these software stacks.

[PerennialNovice]

I reckon that openOCD is not the correct name, full name is Embedded C/C++ OpenOCD Debugging and can be installed via "New Software" in eclipse. Description is "Create and manage GDB server/client debug configurations for OpenOCD."

I also use it seldomly and have no real clue about the inner workings...

For STM32, the Nucleo boards all come with onboard debugger (which is very nice if you consider the cost of those boards!)
For custom boards, I have a few STLink-v3-MINIE flying around. Those are also quite cheap - compared to third-party gear like Segger and the like...

I suspect it is a version incompatibility of some kind, because I had it working on a different install many moths back...
While tracking issues with debugging, which came out to be a bug in the STM32duino "stack", I tried a complete fresh install of Sloeber v4.4.3. And that's when I found that it breaks things ...
Maybe other platforms ship with GDB/openOCD support, but STM32 seems to lack it, at least when installed in sloeber. In Arduino IDE v2 there is no need to install extra things. Which might be because Arduino IDE has everything "on board" already?

[jantje]

"Embedded C/C++ OpenOCD Debugging" contains a whole bunch of stuff which is based on cmake (If I'm not mistaking) V4 is based on managed build and V5 is based on autobuild (My alternative for managed build). All these builders plug into CDT and are completely separate.
However they also come with other things that can be plugged into CDT/eclipse like launchers and connectors.

I used to include part of Embedded C/C++ in the sloeber product before it got part of the eclipse family (and therefore the code moved and the links no longer worked).
I can't recall I added a new link to the plugin I used to include (I have been struggling with the whole linking in plugins very badly)
But again -from what I remember- it was only to add a launch configuration in eclipse; no actual openOCD was part of that plugin.
Typically in CDT the tools are not part of the CDT installation (just like the compilers are not part of sloeber) and the tools are assumed to be "on the system" in a way CDT can find them (which can be as simple as: available on the path.

I suspect it is a version incompatibility of some kind,

V4 is pretty old so including the newest "Embedded C/C++ OpenOCD Debugging" will probably cause incompatibilities.

Maybe other platforms ship with GDB/openOCD support, but STM32 seems to lack it,

I don't seem to find it.
