Hello Virender,
RSE is a framework and vehicle for
communications.
Our CDT integration right now is rather
thin:
I think the best solution were if the other features that
you provide:
would be implemented using the RSE framework for
transport.
That would allow extenders to easily change the transport,
e.g. use
telnet or rlogin or ssh or whatever they
have.
Please let me know if you provide other features that I do
not yet know about,
or if you have concerns about this proposal. Programming
inside the RSE framwork
is pretty easy, your best starting point is the
EclipseCon2007 TM Tutorial, which
includes sample code and a good presentation. See the TM
homepage, getting
started or the FAQ for where to find
it.
Since your extensions are more tightly coupled with CDT, I
think I'd see your
plugin rather live in the CDT than in TM. But this can be
discussed between the
TM and CDT communities.

Hello
Martin
At HP, we are
working on development of a C/C++ remote developer plugin. There is a bugzilla
entry for its code submission (Bug 168048).
The community had expressed
concerns about potential duplication with RSE. We are interested in having
detailed discussions with the TM/RSE team to assess the possibility of
addressing these concerns.
So, as a starting point we would like to get some
insight about expectations of the TM/RSE community. It might address the
following also.
Would we need to work within the RSE framework, and
contribute some add-ons to it ? Or can our plugin be a different sub-project
within TM/RSE project ?
To us, there seems to be a significant difference
between the functionality that RSE and our plugin provide. The approach taken
is also quite different. We can give a presentation to TM/RSE team about our
plugin, if it might be useful.
Regards Virender
Hi
Virender,
What it comes down to
is that TM/RSE is solving the same problems you are, and your solution really
falls into the domain of that project. You should be dealing with Martin O,
the lead of that project, to see how your contribution fits the needs of the
community where RSE does not. The community is settling on RSE as the solution
for all things remote. If there are areas where you can contribute
functionality as an add-on to RSE, I’m sure the community would feel that is
the best approach.

Hello
Doug
We are planning to
assess the possibility of working with the TM/RSE team to address the
duplication concerns. The first step for this would be to know the concerns
and expectations of the community. So, I would request you to articulate these
or point us to the person who would be in a position to do this. We plan to do
a feasibility study based on our discussions with the
community.
Regards Virender

I think the link to
the HP site is fine for the binaries at this stage. The source is needed on
the eclipse.org site for the IP review. The binaries
aren’t.
I am still seeking
approval from the community on this and I have received concern from the
Eclipse Management Organization about the potential duplication with the
Remote System Explorer. As you’ve seen, Martin O from the TM/RSE project is
starting to look. Again, we’ll need a wide review, including the CDT, PTP, and
DSDP/TM commuities before we can really proceed. It also looks like the IP
review is held up until then as well. We can’t provide PCM approval until we
know there are no serious concerns from these communities. And the IP review
won’t start until the PMC approval is received.

Hello
Doug
We have created the
bugzilla entry for our plug-in (Bug 168048). I had one more question. We
wanted to submit the release binaries for our plug-in to the community also.
These binaries are of the order of 20MB and thus could not be attached to the
bug.
We have given a URL
from where these can be downloaded (www.hp.com/go/eclipse-remotedevplugin).
However, is there a way we could submit these to CDT and make them available
to the Eclipse community.
Regards
Virender.

Hello
Doug
We have submitted the
source code and documentation for HP C/C++ remote developer plugin
at IPZilla entry mentioned in previous message. However, since this is not
accessible to all the developers in Eclipse community, should we go ahead and
create a Bugzilla entry for our plug-in. We plan to attach the source code,
release binaries and documentation, to it.
Regards
Virender.

You will need to
supply the source code for everything you would like to distribute from
eclipse.org.
Documentation would
be nice and will be necessary for the community
review.
Thanks!

Hi Doug
We submitted the contribution
questionnaire for the remote developer plugin today. We have got the following
Ipzilla entry:
https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1074
We will be submitting the
source zip in a couple of days.
We have a couple of
questions about the source zip submission:
1. Should we just submit
only the sources as part of this zip or we should include any documents as
well? 2. There is one binary
that we are using in our product which was developed by HP. Should the zip
include that as well?
Thanks
Syamala
