eclipse CDT - Cannot open .gcda files

Question

I am developing a coverage data tool in eclipse cdt. I used gcov and build and execute my C program to generate .gcda and .gcno files.

When double click on .gcda file to see the coverage data, below error message displays.

An error has occurred. See error log for more details. org.eclipse.linuxtools.binutils.utils.STSymbolManager.demangle(Lorg/eclipse/cdt/core/IBinaryParser$IBinaryObject;Ljava/lang/String;Lorg/eclipse/core/resources/IProject;)Ljava/lang/String;

But I already downloaded and save org.eclipse.linuxtools.binutils_4.0.0.201209191645.jar into plugins directory.

Where am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

after doing some further reasearch I was able to get rid of this problem.

After completing following requirements, I was able to open & view coverage details in .gcda files.

• Eclipse Indigo
• CDT 8.0
• Eclipse GCov Integration (Incubation) 0.6.0.201202152032 Plugin
• Eclipse GProf Integration (Incubation) 0.7.0.201202152032 Plugin
• Cygwin
• GNU cygwin binutils (strings.exe,addr2line.exe, c++filt.exe and nm.exe should be there)
• cygwin\bin path should be in the system PATH
