OS: Ubuntu Mate 16.04 LTS (Also on Debian 9 RC2)
Eclipse Neon.2 (4.6.2)
ac6 versions varying from 1.11 to 1.13
System Workbench for STM32 - C/C++ Embedded Development Tools for MCU
Version: 1.13.1.201701200843
Board - STM32F746G_DISCOVERY
STM32CubeMX - 4.19.0
HAL library version 1.6.0
I have created a project using MX with board selection and all other configuration default.
Save the project and open with eclipse.
Build - OK
Debug - Startts, seems like it hangs in SystemClock_Config() (openocd indicates it hit a bnreakpoint, but there is not one there.
Try to step through code. Jumps around from line to line - possibly due to level of compiler optimization.
Try to modify compiler settings. Eclipse hangs at this tab. ‘top’ reports one thread running jave using 100% CPU. At this point eclipse has reached a stable state. The only way to exit this is to kill the java thread.
This problem is 100% repeatable. Same result on a different PC running Debian/Stretch.
Any suggestions to resolve are most welcome. Thanks!
Edit: This is not a total hang after all. If I wait long enough the dialog finally responds. Once open I can go from setting to setting without any noticeable delay. Closing and reopening the dialog takes a couple minutes.
