Target Management 3.2 (Helios) Information
Executive Summary
While the Remote System Explorer (RSE) continues bringing its steady value to the Community with only small incremental improvements, the TCF component has seen a strong Community uptake and important innovations in the 3.2 Release. New TCF features include a fast Streams service with zero copy data transfer; a dynamic plug-in system for the plain C agent; and the Eclipse Debugger (EDC) based on TCF.
- RSE 3.2 is mostly a maintenance release (stability, performance, usability)
- RSE FTP connection has been made robust
- Terminal now also for Local connections on Linux, Solaris, Mac (incubating)
- TCF new features: Streams service, Zero Copy binary transfer, Debug Server as Value-add, new targets (Symbian, Mac, x86_64), dynamic agent plugin system, Eclipse Debugger (EDC) as part of CDT.
Progressive Disclosure of Features
A sample plugin showing how to hide RSE contributions to the UI is available from Eclipse CVS.
Essentially, RSE functionality is expected to be driven from the "Remote Systems" Perspective. Opening the RSE Perspective should trigger enablement of RSE UI Contributions - although pretty much all of them are in the RSE Perspective only.
