Oddly enough, this plugin worked fine for me without the FRC C++ plugin installed. I do have the Java one though.
I had a different problem, though. At first, I had issues with make, but I set it to use the internal builder by default, and it worked fine.
Moreover, the commands that it tried to run as a post-build step (the ones that make, build, and link the constructors and destructors file) failed on the first step. It seems like eclipse was not honoring the pipe characters. I suspect that there may have been an issue with me having Git's included posix tools in my path, but thought that I tried removing them and it still failed. Then, I noticed that Eclipse seemed to be putting backslashes in front of every double quote.
So, I tried executing the commands one-by-one in cmd, removing the backslashes, and they worked fine. I then moved them into a batch file, and they kept working fine. I then set it so that eclipse executed the batch file as a post-build step.
The batch file is
here.
Did anyone else have this problem?
