NEW! PDF of the tutorial slides is here: ptp-sc10-tutorial.pdf (This is an update from what was distributed on the SC10 tutorials USB stick.)

Some alternatives for those unable to pre-install Eclipse are available, including a LiveDVD.

  • If you are setting up Eclipse and PTP for use on your own remote cluster, please see the Release Notes for how to configure the remote machine.
