C++ project shows Java Deploy

[jross]

At a local RQBS, there was one team with an interesting issue with their C++ projects. This did not happen to any other team there.

They installed both the C++ and Java plugins. They then created a C++ Example Project (Getting Started). When they right clicked on the project->run as, they had the choice of local C/C++ application, WPILib Java deploy and WPILib Java Simulate. Clicking on the WPILib Java deploy did not have any affect.

I had them uninstall and reinstall the plugins, with no change. I then uninstalled the plugins and noticed that the User\wpilib directory was still full. I manually deleted that directory, and then installed just the C++ plugins. At this point, the WPI Java deploy options were gone.

We were able to successfully deploy by right clicking on the build.xml and choosing ant deploy.

Any ideas on why the WPILib C++ deploy option didn't populate?

The plugins use Eclipse ProjectNatures to determine whether to display or not. For any of the WPI options to display it checks for edu.wpi.first.wpilib.plugins.core.nature.FRCProjec tNature

For the C++ options to appear it checks for org.eclipse.cdt.core.cnature
For Java it checks for org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature

It seems like somehow the C++ projects were/are not getting the CDT nature for some reason.
