Thanks, Martin. I agree this is the best
plan going forward. RSE provides much of the framework needed to get these
features working and would be easier for the community to maintain.

Hello Virender,
RSE is a framework and vehicle for
communications.
Our CDT integration right now is rather
thin:
- Remote debugging
through gdbserver
- EFS provider to
allow remote resources in the workspace
I think the best solution were if the
other features that you provide:
- Remote build
- Remote debugging
though remote gdb instance
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.
Cheers,

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.

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
