STM32CubeMX as Eclipse plugin on Linux 64 machine

I was able to download and install the STM32CubeMX plugin from ST (stsw-stm32095.zip) into my Eclipse 64-bit Kepler SR-1 software on a Linux 64-bit machine.  Opening the perspective created a problem - An internal error of ''../plugins/com.st.microxplorer.rcp_4.0.0.201402191421//db/plugins/projectmanager/linux/64/toolgen.so not found'' message came up.  Looking through the jar files in the zip file, it appears that only Windows dlls (32 and 64) can be found in the projectmanager directory of the plugin.

The slightly older version of microxplorer (pre-STM32CubeMX) dated from Sept 2013 was able to run, in it's own limited way, without hitting this type of error. Was Linux just overlooked with this plugin, or is it really just for Windows only? #bug #stm32cubemx #stm32cubemx-eclipse-linux

I just downloaded and installed CubeMx 4.16.1 on Ubuntu 14.04. Everything went well and the program is running and I can generate project files.

The downloaded .zip file had a linux installer. Just double clicked and it installed without any hacking. Thanks very much, this is a very useful tool!

Bummer, I'm looking forward to being able to use the plug-in  on  Linux. I spent many hours trying to make it work, to no avail!. I'll just go on to another vendor for my product that supports Linux. After 20 plus years of problems with Microsoft's flowed OS,   I refuse to do any development on windows!   Skoal!
