Trace32 plugin - "debuggert32.cbplugin"

Bonanza:
Hi All,

Does anyone know more about the debuggert32.cbplugin that is available in latest software from lauterbach:
TRACE32_20091204_CD\files\demo\env\codeblocks

It seems to be maintianed by(mobermaiser):
$LastChangedDate: 2009-01-07 15:23:11 +0100 (Mi, 07 Jan 2009) $
$LastChangedRevision: 2860 $
$LastChangedBy: mobermaier $

...from the readme.txt file located in the same folder.

WHY DO I ASK?
The plugin is not loaded properly with a later build of codeblocks like the Januar 9 2010 - rev 6080 which I found the most usable right now.

Any help on where the sourcecode is located or even better a new version of the plugin would be very much appreciated.

Probably you should start with telling where you downloaded this (who/what is "lauterbach"?!). If it's not at our homepage it's most likely not maintained/supported by one of us, so you probably ask the guys of the other webpage?!

Bonanza:
Hi Morten,

Thanks for your reaction.

I assumed everybody knows about lauterbach as they have been the standard debugging equipment provider in the last 4 companies i worked in(TI, Infineon, etc...):-(

But here is the story...
Lauterbach is a German provider of powerfull commercial debugging equipment (similar to Segger and OpenOCD) that is widely used within the embedded industry.

Their homepage is:
http://www.lauterbach.com/frames.html

There is very little information about this plugin on the net(Google) i actually only found this one link:
http://www2.lauterbach.com/pdf/int_codeblock.pdf

The software is provided to you when you buy one of their rather expensive products like the "trace32 debugger" or you can download it if you have a support agreement. The plugin was located inside their software package.

They do however refer to a special build of codeblocks:

--- Code: ---3 Mar 2009 - available for download from:
http://www.gryftec.com/en/download.htm
NOTE: Builds “8.02” and “Nightly Build 5456” have error causing Code::Blocks to crash
when closing with undocked floating windows. To avoid crashing use the
Revision 5475 build.
--- End code ---

...in the above refered document.

I will try to write to lauterbach, but I initially assumed that this is such a small part of their buisness area that it would be hard to find a guy who knew about this.

I am however still open to clues or contacts:-)
Thanks Flemming

As you see: No. :-)

I see. I don't know what / and how they fixed, but I'd rather ask those guys. It seems (!) they fixed something inside wxWidgets itself. So probably a recent version of wxWidgets is needed. However, I never experienced such crashes, so it's not an issue of recent Code::Blocks builds, which use a more recent wxWidgets btw.

Finally: If the plugin is not working in recent builds of C::B you can simply ask the guys at Lauterbach for providing you with a re-compiled version of their plugin. I guess it fails to load because it's for a quite old version of C::B, simply. A re-compilation should be all that's needed then. If they provide the sources for the plugin (which I doubt will be the case) you can do it yourself, too.

If all that fails you can wait until the next release of C::B and ask the Lauterbach guys then. An official release may make them do provide an updated version of their plugin.

Bonanza:
Thanks Morten,

I was initially thinking the approach you mentioned also, but was trying this forum first.

BTW: I was just thinking that is nice to know that a company like lauterbach oficially supports codeblocks. They do have a lot of users.

I wil try to contact them.
