I am trying to use eclipse's CDT for generating an AST for some cpp files. I am following the instructions given here: http://wiki.eclipse.org/images/c/c7/CDT_APIs_for_code_introspection.pdf
However, I ran into an error saying:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: Workspace is closed.
at org.eclipse.core.resources.ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace(ResourcesPlugin.java:399)
at etl.CppParser.Parser(CppParser.java:23)**
After googling about it for a while, I understood that in order to access a project in the workspace (using ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot().getFile(path);), the project should be a plugin project, but my project was a simple Java project.
Therefore, I started to developed a plugin project in eclipse. I created a target platform to which I added all the required plugin dependencies required for my project. But I still have a problem when I run the plugin project as an Eclipse application. Here is the exact error:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.cdt.launch.remote 4 0 2013-11-30 01:43:27.379

Could someone please tell me what I could do to get rid of this problem... I am not able to understand what the problem is at this point.
Thank you very much for any help.
The error says that bundle org.eclipse.cdt.launch.remote has a Require-Bundle (osgi.wiring.bundle) statement which lists bundle org.eclipse.rse.ui and the bundle version range [3.0,4.0). So org.eclipse.cdt.launch.remote cannot resolve because it is dependent on bundle org.eclipse.rse.ui having bundle version >=3 and < 4.
