Re: [ptp-dev] ETFw profile launch configuration

[Wyatt Spear <wspear@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Also, while I like sharing launch configurations between ETFW and regular PTP launches, using the PTP launch configuration type seems to mean using it's Launch Configuration Delegate.  The ETFW uses its own delegate to do some extra stuff and then invokes the PTP's.  Is there any way to swtich delegates within the same configuration type, or would I need to incorporate the ETFW into the PTP's core delegate?

Switching over to the extension-point based tab layout is turning out to be not-totally-straightforward.  The 'Common' tab doesn't have a TAB_ID so you can't explicitly position tabs after it and I get random tab positioning when the position isn't explicit (or even multiple tabs are set to follow the same tab).  The tab ordering changes between instances of the launch manager window, which seems especially bizarre...

Wyatt,

I'd also suggest using the org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchConfigurationTabs extension point for defining the tabs rather than hard coding tabs in the ParallelToolLaunchConfigurationTabGroup class. Plugins could then add their own tabs using this extension point, rather than needing to have a separate org.eclipse.ptp.etfw.configurationTabs extension point.

Hi Wyatt,

For 1, all that needs to happen is change the type field of the launchConfigurationTabGroup to "org.eclipse.ptp.launch.parallelLaunch". You should probably also remove the old launch configuration type otherwise it will show up in the launch dialog.

If you'd like to make the changes, that's fine with me. Or I can make them and you could test the non-ptp launch issue. Let me know whatever works best.

Cheers,

Greg

I like all of these.  I can implement 2 and 3 pretty quickly.  For 1 I'll have to do a little digging to remind myself of which string to change and which to use to switch the etfw configuration type.  Also 1 may require some changes to documentation and I need to make sure we retain support for non-ptp launches.

Wyatt & other ETFw users,

1. The profile configuration uses it's own launch configuration type. If the launch configuration type was the same as the Parallel Application launch configuration type, then run/debug launch configurations created using the Parallel Application launch configuration could be used for a profile launch. In some situations, this would reduce the amount of configuration required for a development work flow. I propose that the profile configuration use the same configuration type.

2. The profile launch configuration has the Application tab before the Resources tab. However, for remote launches in particular, the resource manager must be selected before the application executable. Otherwise there is no way to know on which remote host the executable is located. I propose reversing these two tabs.

3. The profile launch configuration has a Debugger tab which is not required, but, annoyingly, still needs to be completed by the user. I propose removing this tab.

Please let me know ASAP if you have any objections, or are ok with these changes.

Thanks,
Greg
