Eclipse Toolbar Missing

I am a new Toradex user. I am following the Get Started tutorial for the Colibri iMX7D on an Iris v1.1 board - link text.

I am running a virtual box with Ubuntu (18.04 LTS) and installed Eclipse Neon-3. When I first installed the Eclipse it worked successfully and all of the toolbars were present. I was able to build and compile test applications just fine.

My question is two-fold.

The first is that there are some toolbars missing. Today I tried to revisit the applications I had written yesterday, but some of the toolbars are now missing - debug toolbar? I am missing the Quick Access, Open Perspective, C/C++ perspective, Debug, Run and other buttons. I cannot figure out why the toolbars are missing today when they were present yesterday. Please see the attached images.

The second is that I created two Debug Configurations; hello-world-tutorial Debug and hello-world-tutorial Release. As far as I can tell, I created them correctly. The problem is that they are not appearing under the now missing Debug tool button. The toolbar button is missing today, but yesterday it was present, but the debug sessions were missing from the drop-down.

Thank you in advance for your help.

HI @ivan.barranza and Welcome to the Toradex Community!

To show the Eclipse Toolbar, you should activate “Show Toolbar” in the Menu.

If this does not work, maybe something went wrong. You can reset the Perspective in Eclipse or delete folder “.metadata”. from your Project. After removing the folder, you need to import/create your Project again.

Hello jaski.tx,

Thank you for your welcome and for your reply.

In my case, I do not see a “Show Toolbar” item on the menu. I have gone through all of the menu items and I cannot see it. Is it under the Windows menu?

I also looked for the .metadata folder on my project, but I could not find it either. I created a new project (C and C++) and I did not see the .metadata folders either.

When I start Eclipse (Neon-3), I notice that I get a bunch of these errors…
(Eclipse:2712): GLib-CRITICAL **: 12:49:31.745: g_base64_encode_step: assertion ‘in != NULL’ failed

(Eclipse:2712): GLib-CRITICAL **: 12:49:31.745: g_base64_encode_step: assertion ‘in != NULL’ failed

After selecting the workspace, I get around 13 of these errors…

HI @ivan.barraza

How did you install Eclipse on your host?
Which Java version are using?
