PTP/new and noteworthy/9.1.0
The following are new features that are available in PTP 9.1, Photran 9.1, and Remote 2.1.
Contents
Support for the "K" computer
A new target system configuration has been added to support the "K" computer.
Contribute actions to TerminalConsole toolbar
Other plugins are now able to contribute actions to the TerminalConsole toolbar using the consoleToolbar extension point.
Improve reuse
All o.e.remote plugin dependencies have been changed from "Required-Bundle" to "Import-Package" in order to enable reuse in a wider variety of situations (e.g. RAP).
Preparation for OpenACC refactoring contribution
In preparation for a contribution of OpenACC refactoring functionality (see Bug 490965), the org.eclipse.ptp.pldt.openacc plugin has been split into three new plugins:
- org.eclipse.ptp.pldt.openacc.core
- org.eclipse.ptp.pldt.openacc.cli
- org.eclipse.ptp.pldt.openacc.ui
Remote terminal connections no longer require sftp
Previously, when a remote terminal (ssh) connection was opened, the connection required an sftp channel to be opened also. This is no longer necessary.
