Answer

Debug configurations created with older versions of TrueSTUDIO® (prior 1.3.0) are not compatible with TrueSTUDIO® 1.3.0 or later.

To overcome this issue, previously created debug configurations should be removed from the workspace. To do this the following steps are required:

 

  • Locate the directory ".metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.debug.core\.launches" in your workspace directory

  • Remove each file in this directory that contains the line "<launchConfiguration type="org.eclipse.cdt.debug.gdbjtag.launchConfigurationType">".

    IMPORTANT: Please make sure to backup custom changes, such as GDB connection commands, before removing any files from this directory.

  • Create a new debug configuration in the upgraded TrueSTUDIO® (see Quickstart guide).
