I never exclude the possibility that my code has bugs. the GNU ARM Eclipse is a suite of 19 plug-ins, most with dependencies, so I cannot simply test them one by one, but I'll try to identify the one that is causing the exceptions.

I have only one additional button, a Reset button, used to reset the debugged target:

  <extension
        point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
     <menuContribution
           locationURI="toolbar:org.eclipse.debug.ui.main.toolbar?after=additions">
        <command
           commandId="org.eclipse.debug.ui.commands.Restart"
           icon="icons/elcl16/restart_co.gif"
           disabledIcon="icons/dlcl16/restart_co.gif"
           label="%restartButton.label"
           style="push"
           tooltip="%restartButton.tooltip">
        </command>
     </menuContribution>
  </extension>

I doubt this is the problem.

my setup includes the GNU ARM Eclipse plug-ins:

http://gnuarmeclipse.livius.net/blog/

you don't even need to install all of them; the build, the cortex-m template and the j-link features are enough, once you install them the stack overflow occurs.

the Stack Overflow bug is reported, documented and confirmed from another user:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=440033

but I still would not rule out that that the debugger behaviour is a distinct problem.

I would say that 8.3.0 was the last functional version.

thank you,
