In case the 'start the J-Link GDB server locally is not checked, and if there is no GDB server running, there is a there is a strange error message:

localhost:2331: The system tried to join a drive to a directory on a joined drive.
That message shows up at least on Windows (7 in my case).
Would be good if the error message could be improved, otherwise users have no clue what is the problem.
Something like "cannot connect to GDB server. Check that the GDB server is running or enable starting the GDB server locally in the debug configuration".
The message does not come from the plug-ins (even my bad English is not bad enough to imagine such an explanation!), but to me it looks like an error somewhere, so I'll investigate the cause, and try to fix it.
ERROR_JOIN_TO_JOIN
138 (0x8A)
The system tried to join a drive to a directory on a joined drive.
This error seems to crop up when the debug component sitting between GDB and the target (e.g. OpenOCD, J-Link GDB Server etc.) is misconfigured or - as above - simply not told to run.
the error may actually be coming from GDB and not any Eclipse component?
The error certainly doesn't make obvious sense in this context but perhaps some of this info will help to track down why it happens whatever about addressing it - especially if it's ultimately a GDB issue?
I came across this in a different area (developing cdt-gdb-adapter) - it seems this message comes from trying to connect to a port that isn't listening at the same time as having certain VPN + firewall settings.
So AFAICT it is not really a GDB issue either, except for the error message that is presented in the end.
