OK this thing is driving me mad... I'm using Sun JRE 1.5 and I'm using 33m6
eclipse bits
When I go to profile an application I get an error that the "Agent
controller" isn't configured. So I go to preferences and look at the agent
controller and everything is grayed out... sigh...I would expect the
integrated agent controller to be the one that I'd be using, it shows
enabled but doesn't work.....so I go to the profiler preferences and I
specify "Direct connection" then I try to run and I get:
IWAT0284E The agent controller is not available on host localhost.
Make sure that:
* the agent controller is installed.
* the agent controller is configured to communicate with your machine.
* you have the correct host name and port number for the agent controller.
org.eclipse.hyades.internal.execution.local.control.AgentCon trollerUnavailableException
no matter what I have tried I can't get this thing to work..its very
frustrating. IMO the user experience of this feature or set of tools, is
Beyond poor.
What I would expect is, this
I install the tool, then from the plugin explorer I can select the plugin
(or plugins I want to profile) and I right click and say Profile. At this
point I get a wizard that allows me to set up ALL my profiling information.
I'd also think from the selection that I could also have my filter set up
automagically... it should be able to do it.... Then I say start profiling
and wha la... I'm in up and running.
I'd also like to make the comment as a seasoned developer that when a person
goes to use a tool like this, They need to get up and running quick in many
cases. I want answers to my problem, not frustration and no progress....
Also.... another user experience lameness is that there are prefernces
EVERYWHERE in the preferences for getting profiling set up. IMO Centralize
the preferences in one location. Make it easy to set up, not hard.
Also the documentation help is HORRIBLE and confusing, in many places it
talks above the readers head. IMO the author of the help needs to write from
the stand point of someone who has never used the feature, not from the
standpoint of one of the developers who wrote the darn tool. :p

John,
To help, we need the following information:
1. O/S and architecture
2. Exact version of TPTP (version and build date).
Thanks,
Asaf

tptp.runtime.allInOne.win32.win32.x86-TPTP-4.4.0-20070327010 0D.zip
and I'm using SUN jre 1.5.0_11
under windows XP SP2
I bring the all in one up in a new workspace (using -clean)
I go into preferences and I go to "Agent Controller" --> "Integrated Agent
Controller"
I see the "enable" check box is checked, and I also check "Allow Remote
connections" and "Always Running" then I go to the "profiling and
logging" --> "Hosts" preference and I select localhost:10002 and I select
"test" and I get the error message:
"A Local Direct Connection is currently active. Before starting the Remote
Agent Controller(RAC) you need to detach all the agents running using this
local direct connection"
So I try "Local Direct connection" and I select "test" button and I get
"success" so I go and run my profile config and I get
org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException
The selected Java profiler agent is not available via Local Direct
Connection. Please start the Agent Controller to use the selected profiler.
org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: The selected Java profiler agent is
not available via Local Direct Connection. Please start the Agent
Controller to use the selected profiler.

Any ideas whats going on? I can't seem to get profiling going no matter what
I try.

John,
As far as I know, the Integrated Agent Controller does not work
correctly in the build you downloaded. Most of the problem were fixed in
the latest development build.
However, you can still use the "D" stable build with the standalone
Agent Controller. Simply download the Agent Controller from the "D"
build download site, unpack the ZIP file, run the SetConfig.bat script
and launch the Agent Controller by running RAServer.exe.
HTH,
Asaf
