Re: [linuxtools-dev] PTP/RDT and remote linuxtools
|
I personally didn't realize there was a Fedora package for eclipse-ptp.
It is not in RHEL though. From our perspective, we would have to add
something to RHEL (since Autotools is currently in RHEL). That involves
QA work for a new package and we have to sign up for multiple years of
service which may be a sticking point on using it directly in the near term.
The current Fedora Autotools plug-in is shipped with eclipse-cdt so this
would introduce a circular dependency that would need to be dealt with
by splitting out Autotools and Libhover.
Right now, I would like to finish my prototype work in my private branch
as I am close to complete. The fact that you mention that the PTP base
plug-in is just the local implementation plus APIs and won't drag in the
world is certainly intriguing so I will create another git branch and do
the same changes via direct PTP calls.
There is nothing etched in stone here. For example, our remote strategy
started with TCF agent and we migrated to use RSE instead. So, even if
we don't directly access/require PTP now, we certainly could do so in
the future.

Yes, but a feature just lists the plugins and dependencies. Presumably you're already including CDT plugins so adding a few from PTP should be trivial. I believe there is already a PTP package for Fedora in any case.

How is that any different from building and shipping linuxtools?
Each feature is built and shipped as a separate SRPM and one or more
RPMs.
