Parallel Package changes
The Parallel Package "Eclipse for Parallel Application Developers" available on the downloads page has a new simplified name ("IDE for" removed) and no longer includes the "(includes Incubating components)" since the LInux Tools included have matured! The Parallel Package is the easiest and simplest way to start using PTP. It has all you need in one place!
For details about what's included in the parallel package, see Comparing and combining packages
Core Features
New target system configurations
- Support for Grid Engine system monitoring
- Support for IBM LoadLeveler on Blue Gene
- Support for SLURM on Blue Gene
- Machine-specific target system configurations for launching jobs on:
- Blue Waters (NCSA)
- Forge (NCSA)
- Lonestar (TACC)
- Ranger (TACC)
- Trestles (SDSC)
- Keeneland (NICS)
- Kraken (NICS)
- ANL Blue Gene
Simplified job submission
PTP launches no longer require the separate creation, and starting, of a Resource Manager before a job can be launched. Now the Target System Configuration is specified right on the Run Configuration dialog. Several new system configurations are included with PTP 6.0 in this new simplified launch mechanism.
Simplified system monitoring
System monitoring is automatically configured and the perspective switched if required by the user.
New monitor types supported
A number of new target systems are supported for monitoring.
Manual refresh for monitors
Monitors can be manually refreshed in addition to the automatic 60s refresh cycle.
Usage bars
The system monitoring view can aggregate usage data on each node (rack, etc.) and present as a single usage bar in the display. Zoom-in and zoom-out buttons are available to activate this usage information manually.
Message-of-the-day
Where available, the system monitoring perspective will display the message of the day (contents of /etc/motd) when monitoring is activated.
Job filtering
Jobs can be filtered to reduce display complexity. There is a simple filter that will only show the user's jobs.
Jobs can also be filtered on arbitrary column attributes.
Support for environment management systems (Modules/SoftEnv)
PTP's support for Modules and other environment management systems eases the process of configuring a project's build and runtime environments.
Error parsers for Cray, Portland Group, and Open64 C/C++ compilers
PTP 6 extends the Eclipse C/C++ Development Tooling (CDT) with the ability to recognize error and warning messages produced by the Cray, Portland Group, and Open64 C/C++ compilers. For Cray compilers, it can also recognize informational messages about how the compiler optimized the code.
Parallel Language Development Tools
- OpenACC added
- OpenSHMEM added
- LAPI removed
- MPI support upgraded to MPI standard 2.2
- OpenMP support upgraded to OpenMP 3.1
- Documentation integrated with Fortran Declaration view
- MPI, OpenMP, and OpenACC code templates for Fortran
Remote Development Tools (RDT)
Synchronized Projects
Synchronized projects consist of files that are mirrored on the local system as well as on one or more remote systems. Editing occurs locally and each file is synchronized with the currently active remote system when it is changed, created, or deleted. This enables faster interaction with the files and editor, more CDT editor features since the files are local, and continued interaction for editing etc. if the network connection is lost.
New features for PTP 6.0
- A new, more intuitive wizard. All information for both local and remote sites, including toolchains, can be entered on a single page.
- A new merge-conflict resolution tool for handling merge conflicts without leaving Eclipse.
See the documentation and the PTP Synchronized Projects Wiki for more information.
CDT Changes
The C/C++ Development Tools that are included with the "Eclipse for Parallel Application Developers" have also been updated for Eclipse juno. See their newest features on their New and Noteworthy page.
Fortran (Photran)

- Support for third-party API documentation (Bug 373194)
- Better support for MPI, OpenMP, and OpenACC when PLDT is installed (see above)
