Hello everyone,
Any plans on supporting for the following (maybe not very usual) scenario?
Long story short:
I want to use Eclipse CDT client installed on my Windows laptop, to edit/index Eclipse CDT project created on a remote Linux system. Clicking "Save" immediately updates remote source files. Compile/build is executed in a remote system, Eclipse CDT is used just as an "advanced editor with early syntax error reporting feature".
Bit more background:
I just finished playing with RDT tools and my Eclipse CDT (Mars.2 / Release 4.5.2), in order to enable mentioned scenario. Not too much luck due to 2 reasons.
(1) my employer does not provide me with root privileges, so I was unable to bring up RDT daemon (for details see this article), tried to start RDT server, and still got a mess with connecting to a remote Linux filesystem.
(2) Even if RDT server would magically start for me, I am still unable to efficiently use it due to installing Parallel Tools Platform does not provide me with "new remote C/C++ project) as I initially expected.
To avoid derailing the discussion too far from my question, I must admit I realize that one among good workarounds is just to install Eclipse CDT directly to a remote system and use X-clients such as VNC to edit remote code in this remote Eclipse IDE.
Thanks in advance!
