PTP/environment setup 21

Prerequisites

1. Eclipse 3.4 (Ganymede)
2. CDT 5.0.2
3. To run full PTP parallel application monitoring/debugging: Linux or Mac OS X, and OpenMPI or MPICH2
4. To run/debug remote applications, and/or run only PLDT analysis, OpenMPI isn't required, and all should work on Windows

Install steps

Install Eclipse

1. Install Eclipse Ganymede from http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/
   • Choose 3.4, latest version, full SDK
2. Download the latest build of CDT 5.0.x (currently 5.0.2) from http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/builds
   • Save the cdt-master-5.0.x-IYYYYMMDDHHMM.zip file, to use in software update steps below
3. Unpack and launch Eclipse
4. Install RSE from the Ganymede update site using the update manager:
   1. Help > Software Updates ...
   2. Make sure 'Available Software' is selected at the top
   3. Open Ganymede Update Site
   4. Open Remote Access and Device Development
   5. Select Remote System Explorer End-User Runtime
   6. Click Install ... Next, Accept, Finish
5. Install CDT from the master file you downloaded in step 2:
   1. Help > Software Updates ...
   2. Make sure 'Available Software' is selected at the top
   3. Click Add site, archive, and locate the CDT master ZIP file you downloaded above; hit OK
   4. Select at least the 3 items under CDT Main features (make sure they are checked)
   5. Click Install ... Next, Accept, Finish

Configure CVS Access

1. Switch to the CVS perspective and create a new repository location:
   • Host: dev.eclipse.org
   • Repository path: /cvsroot/tools
   • User: <yourCommitterID> or anonymous
   • Password: <yourPW> or empty for anonymous access
   • Connection type: extssh for committer access, or pserver for anonymous access
2. After creating the repository location, expand it and expand HEAD.

All the PTP content is under org.eclipse.ptp.

Checkout PTP Plugins

The easiest way to do this is to import using team project sets. The following table summarizes the available sets in the releng/ptp_project_sets project:

Project Set Contents	Committer Access	Anonymous Access
All 2.1 Plugins	ptp-2.1-all-committer.psf	ptp-2.1-all-anonymous.psf
All HEAD Plugins	ptp-HEAD-all-committer.psf	ptp-HEAD-all-anonymous.psf

Use the project set file in the Committer Access column if you are a committer. Otherwise, use the files in the Anonymous Access column.

These project set files will check out ALL the plugins currently in PTP. If you want to only work on a selection, you'll need to remove uneeded plugins from your workspace.

1. Download the appropriate psf file and save it somewhere.
2. Right click in the Package Explorer and select Import....
3. Choose Team Project Set from the Team folder and click Next >.
4. Enter the filename of the psf file and click Finish.
5. If you see a Specify Repository Information dialog, click OK.
6. Enter a user name and password if required (anonymous and empty password for anonymous access)
7. The projects should now be checked out into your workspace.

Launching a runtime workbench running the code you checked out into your workspace

1. Run > Debug Configurations ...
2. Double-click on 'Eclipse Application' - or click and click on the 'new' icon
3. Defaults are probably ok to run with all the plugin projects in your workspace; hit 'Debug' in lower right corner
4. Eclipse comes up. Switch to C/C++ perspective if needed
5. For details on creating an MPI or OpenMP project, see Help > Help Contents ...
