[linuxtools-dev] Re: Linux-only features

Hi,

gprof and gcov are *not* linux only.
It's OK to use these plugins on windows - However, something like cygwin binutils must be in PATH.

Hi,

A few of our features will not function on non-Linux (or maybe non-Unix)
OSes.  I'd like to ensure that these features are not visible if one
views our update site from such an OS.  I filed a bug to track this:

   308661: Add OS filter to all features that are Linux-specific
   https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=308661

Can the feature owners please tell me if their functionality will work
on non-Linux OSes?  Since many of us are only testing on Linux, I'd
rather be conservative and ensure that the stuff we're shipping isn't
exposed to an audience who will only encounter bugs.  I'm looking for
feedback specifically from:

   Jeff (libhover, autotools, changelog)
   Xavier (GProf, GCov)
   Alex (RPM, .spec editor, rpmstubby, man)
   Anithra (SystemTap)

I'll take the liberty of making the Valgrind, OProfile, and call graph
features Linux-only.

Thanks,

Andrew
