Getting started with demo agent [message #34294]

Hello folks,

I am trying to get started with a demo agent and can't quite get things
running. Here is my setup:

- Win XP, eclipse 3.1.1, TPTP 4.0.0 with all the other prerequisites (EMF
....) I can switch to the profiling and logging perspective so I think this
is all o.k.
- eclipseCon demo sources from the TPTP documentation page
( http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/eclipseCon2005/Ec lipseCon_2005_Tutorial_22_Source_Code_Antony_Miguel_Paul_Sla uenwhite.zip)
- Imported eclipsecon.tutorial.datacollection and
eclipsecon.tutorial.datacollection.agent projects into the workspace. Fixed
a few compiler errors where package names have changed. I can now run
eclipsecon.tutorial.datacollection.agent as a java application and the agend
keeps telling me that it is not being monitored yet.
- Downloaded and unpacked the windows agent controller, ran SetConfig.bat
but left everything as default. Started the RAServer as an application (from
the command line). It doesn't say anything but keeps running until I kill it
so I guess this must be o.k.
- Create a new eclipseCon Agent launch configuration and leave the host
entry as "localhost". With RAServer and the agent running I start the launch
configuration. Here is the console output:

asked to connect to localhost:10002

at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.readAndDispatch(Display.java :2716)
at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.runEventLoop(Workbench.jav a:1699)
....

So I figure:
- The eclipse launch can actually contact the RAServer
- The RAServer does not know anything about the demo Agent, even though it
is running.

How do I get the two acquainted?
Or what else can I do ?

Thanks for reading this far - and for responses!

I haven't worked with that particular demo so I'm not that familiar with
it, but from the stack trace you posted, it seems that the RAC is spitting
out an error message (RA_ERROR_STRING), which causes the
NoSuchApplicationException in ProcessImpl. I'd suggest you first profile
a simple application to make sure your RAC is properly configured. You
can follow the instructions in this document to do that
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/tutorials/profili ngtool/profilingexample_32.html
If that works, then the RAC is having problems launching the agent
specified in the demo (i.e. there is something wrong with the demo.)

Hi Norbert,
This sample code was originally written for Hyades v3.2.0 due to a
defect in Hyades v3.1.0. However, the defect has since been fix so with the
appropriate refactoring (see
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/downloads/migrateguide/4.0/ tptp_4_0_migration_guide.html),
it should work in later releases of Hyades/TPTP.

When installing the Agent Controller, did you follow all of the steps in
teh Agent Controller's getting_started.html, including adding the Agent
Controller's bin directory to the system's PATH variable? If so and you can
successfully profile a sample application, please post the Agent
Controller's servicelog.log.

Also, consider using the later release of this sample which is in the
source download for the 'Using and Extending the Test and Performance Tools
Platform' EclipseWorld presentation.
