Eclipse C/C++ Remote Debugging connection failed

i tried to apply a remote debugging session with Eclipse to a Windows XP remote pc. So i configured a Windows-Connection in "Debug Configuration" for a "C/C++ Remote Application". But it gives me the following Error message:

"Daemon failed to launch server on IP_ADDRESS using port 0.

Connection refused. Make sure that the DataStore daemon is running on IP_ADDRESS"

What is the probleme here? Why is a "DataStore" needed, where to get it if it's necessary!?

Solution

  • To connect, a RSE Server has to run on windows box. This invokes the necessary daemon which eclipse wants to connect to.
