[ptp-dev] Problems/questions creating remote C project

[Dave Wootton <dwootton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to set up a remote C project
on a Linux system with the IBM C compiler installed and Eclipse running
on a Windows XP system. I am using a RSE Dstore connection between the
two systems, have server.pl running on the remote system and am connected
to the remote system.

Again, I'm not sure what is supported,
what I might be doing wrong, and what might be a problem.

I was able to specify the remote directory
path and selected an empty C project and clicked next. I selected advanced
settings on the next page to set up the project.

On the C/C++ Build/settings panel I
selected the Elf parser and the XLC error parser. 

I went to the Tool Chain Editor tab
and selected the XLC tool chain and picked GNU make for the current builder

I went to the C/C++ Build/XL C/C++ compiler
tab to enter the compiler path (my compiler is at /opt/ibmcmp/vac/9.0/bin/xlc).
I had to type the compiler root path (/opt/ibmsmp/vac/9.0?) since the browse
button gets me a local directory selector dialog.

I selected the Remote Paths and Services
tabs but didn't change anything there. When I click any other selection
in the project properties window after that I get an error popup 'The currently
displayed page has invalid values' and I am stuck on the remote oaths and
symbols page until I cancel the properties dialog.

After I changed the above settings in
the advanced settings I clicked thru to the last page where I configured
the Build and C/C++ indexing services to use my RSE Dstore connection

I created a source file and a makefile
in the project top level directory, using New->Source file for the C
code and New->File for the makefile. They did not show up in the project
explorer view until after I right clicked in that vioeew and clicked refresh.

When I saved the file, Eclipse tried
to build the project and failed with the following messages

**** Rebuild of configuration Debug
for project test ****

**** Internal Builder is used for build
              ****
Build error

I created a second Makefile in a Debug
directory in my project and refreshed the project explorer view after creating
the makefile. When I saved teh source file again, I got the same messages
as above.

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
