[hyades-dev] UI meeting minutes - April 7, 2004

[Valentina Popescu <popescu@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Attendees :

Neil, Anthony, Geary & team, Dominique,
Julien, Valentina, Curt

Agenda:
- Performance monitoring launch scenario

There has been discussed the usecase
scenario for launching and collecting data using the perfmon agent. Currently,
the user has to create a statCon file, set the collection options, then
open the statcon editor and run the perfmon agent using a popup action
within the editor. This is not intuitive and also is not aligned with the
Hyades standard way of launching and controlling an active agent.

Solution for M9 (candidate driver April
16):
The launch perfmon action should be
available from the Eclipse Profile launch configuration dialog. We found
two possible approaches:
1. Use the existing Attach - Java process
configuration
This will be the solution for M9, assuming
the RAC can query the existing configuration, identify the perfmon agent
as an agent to attach to and make it available in the attach wizard. This
is not working now and Neil will follow up with Richard to understand whether
it is viable solution.
2. Create a new Profile configuration
type for a Perfmon agent.
Anthony will contact Curt to find out
how to use Eclipse extensions to create this configuration.


- Test Navigator 
Wayne was no able to attend today's
meeting and there was no interest from the attendees to discuss the Test
Navigator, so this item has been removed from the agenda.
Let me know if somebody wants to have
this item discussed in the next UI meeting.


Thank you,
