JDK13 - minor error due to API change
I recently freshly installed my laptop and am receiving a startup error from eclipse. The error is as follows:
ENTRY org.eclipse.core.jobs 4 2 2020-02-25 10:57:19.420
MESSAGE An internal error occurred during: “Initializing External-tools”.

A little quick research shows that the WindowsRegOpenKey method no longer has a variant that accepts (int,[B,int). It requires a long for the first argument.
Here is another project that encountered the same issue.

Can you please make the appropriate change to the stlinkserver plugin?
Thanks
