Re: [linuxtools-dev] Valgrind Massif plugin switch from BIRT to SWTChart

Hi,

Bumping the discussion. Do we have anyone working in making
gprof/gcov/massif use SWTchart?

Massif is using SWTChart on feature/valgrind/no-birt (It was
the only Valgrind plugin using BIRT to begin with).

I've started looking into making gprof/gcov use it as well.
It seems like this would just require modifying the
o.e.l.dataviewers plugins to use SWTChart.

There may be some functionality that the dataviewers plugins
are providing that may not be provided by SWTChart but am unsure
whether other plugins (gcov/gprof) are taking advantage of this.

If there's anyone who has a bit more knowledge about these
plugins and what would be required, any input/help would be
greatly appreciated.

Systemtap and massif uses BIRT API directly. Gprof and gcov relies on org.eclipse.linuxtools.dataviewers.charts, that in turn uses BIRT API.

BIRT charts being used:

* Systemtap (some charts are not working)
  Area Chart
  Bar Graph
  Line Graph
  Meter Chart
  Pie Chart
  Scatter Graph
* Massif
  exports chart as svg
  scatter chart
* gprof and gcov
  bar graph (horizontal and vertical)
  pie chart (3d)
  export chart as jpeg

There are some developers of our team that might be working on Freeing SystemTap, gprof and gcov plug-ins from Birt. So we just need to synchronize such a tasks to avoid duplicated work. Should us open bugzillas for each plug-in?
