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

Dave,

A few points:

• The builder should not be changed, only the build command should be changed. Only the remote makefile builder knows how to send the build commands remotely, the other builders are local. On AIX, if you have GNU make installed, the executable is called "gmake".
• The RSE exception you mentio seems to happen from time to time, but seems to be harmless. It's something in RSE itself, it doesn't reallly have anything to do with RDT.
• There is a CDT bug whereby if you try to create a new project in a location where there already was a project at one time or another, the CDT project description doesn't get created properly, and this causes havoc with the builder. As a workaround, delete the old .project and .cproject files in the directory before creating the project.

I had created an empty remote project. thinking that was the reasonable choice. I have createda remote makefile project and it works a bit better but I still have problems. In project properties,/Tool chain editor, I changed the Current Builder from Gnu Make Builder to Gnu Make since nothing seems to happen when Gnu Make Builder (the default) was selected. I also selected the XLC error parser since that wasn't selected by default even though I selected the XLC toolchain when prompted in setting up the project. I didn't change anything else in project properties and just clicked thru to the last properties page and configured the remote services there. 

I also downloaded the latest (10/29) rdt server and installed that. 

I created a simple Makefile 
all: hello 

hello: hello.c 
        xlc -o hello hello.c 

When I save changes to my .c file, the makefile runs, but when the compile finishes, I see the following exception on the rdt server xterm 
java.io.IOException: Pipe closed 
        at java.io.PipedInputStream.read(PipedInputStream.java:263)

        at org.eclipse.dstore.core.model.Handler.run(Handler.java:135) 

I created a parallel run configuration and tried to run the program. When I clicked run, Eclipse tried to comile the program. Make found nothing to do. Then I got a message that the shell exited with rc 0 and my program was not run. 

While I was writing this email, I went into project properties and changed the builder to Gnu Make Builder and couldn't get Eclipse to try to compile the program, even after I changed the builder back to Gnu Make. I deleted the project and created it again, but apparently missed something or did something different than the first time since Eclipse still doesn't try to compile my program. I have the C/C++ Build behavior panel configured to build on resource save. 

When I save the program source, I do see messages from the RDT server that the source has been indexed.

Dave, 

When you created the remote project did you select the project type as 'Remote Makefile Project'? I think this is the only type of project supported by RDT currently. This also means that the tool chain information is not used, you have to put everything into the Makefile instead.

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?
