Linux Tools Project/News/NewIn60
Contents
All plugins
Native touchpoints
Added native touchpoints instructions so p2 checks whether the underlying tools (rpm, perf, oprofile..) are installed and if not give message to the user what is missing and what command to use to install it.
Generic Editor
Support for all the content types with specialized editors is hooked into Eclipse 4.7 new generic editor. Not on par yet but it's first step towards removing all the specialized editors in the future. Users are advertised to try and report issues.
Highlighting definitions
Editors (*.stp, Dockerfile, *.supp, *.spec, ChangeLog) highlighting colors are no longer hardcoded but defined in the plugin.xml file via org.eclipse.ui.themes extension point. Users of the dark theme are encouraged to contribute definitions to make it work better in it.
Docker Tooling
Update of Docker Client
The level of the underlying com.spotify.docker.client plug-in used to access the Docker daemon has been upgraded to 6.1.1.
New Security Options
Support has been added when launching commands in a Container to specify a security option profile. This can be done in lieu of specifying privileged mode. For example, to run gdbserver, one can specify "seccomp:unprofiled" to allow ptrace commands to be run by the gdb server.
The Run Image Wizard has been modified to allow specifying an unconfined seccomp profile to replace the default seccomp profile.
The security options are also now shown in the Properties View.
Editor Changes
Many of the Linux Tools editors have been modified to use the new generic editor as a base.
