Re: [ptp-dev] Question about performance tools framework in PTP
Greetings,
I believe multiple tabs/tools of the same name have internally different
ids in case they are being used by different tools. I'm not sure of the
best way to error-check or manage this case, off the top of my head,
though. I could just start numbering multiple tabs of the same name, but
that wouldn't tell which tool was using which...
You can get rid of the command box by adding the attribute
displayoptions="false"
to the toolpane tag. I should probably make that false by default.
Currently all file selection widgets are local only. If you could point
me toward the API for selecting remote files used by the remote-enabled
components of the PTP, though, I could see about adding remote support to
the framework on that level.
I will have a look at the API tomorrow and try to find a good place for
grabbing job status information. The specifics will probably depend on
where your plugin touches the launch API already because there are
probably a few different places to attach status listeners or grab the
progress object.
Let me know if you run into anything you would like to see added to
support your use-case, additional widget options, extension points, etc.
Regards,
Wyatt

I downloaded the latest code and now I can see where I can enter the
executable path in the application tab. I can run my application and see
the environment variables are being sent across correctly.
I experimented a bit with your sample XML file and can see how I can
generate multiple sub-tabs in the performance analysis tab. It looks like
I can implement what I want with the panel support you have now. Without
fully implementing what I want to do, I can't tell if there is something
missing but I think this is close to what I could use.
A couple things I noticed, that don't block me from using this.
I was able to add the same tab twice by specifying the XML file in my
plugin.xml and then again by adding the same XML file as a workflow XML
file in the tool selection panel. I don't know if it's worth the trouble,
or even a good idea to prevent this.
Is there any way to specify that the box at the top of the panel where
command strings are shown as they are built is hidden? I wouldn't be using
it for my tools, and it might be a minor distraction to users who wonder
why there is this empty box at the top of the pane. This isn't that big a
deal either way.
Do the directory and file type optvalues deal with remote filesystems or
are they strictly local files and directories? I'm currently thinking all
I need is the text and toggle types but might have a use for the directory
type if it (and files) supported remote files. Again, this is not
something I really need, just something to think about.
I still need to look at notifications for job start and finish. You
suggested that I register my code as a listener on the IProgressMonitor in
some way, but I'm not sure where I should be looking. I originally was
going to look at PTP job launch as one place to put my hooks, but I need
this to work for both parallel and serial applications, so if you are
thinking of a place where I can hook to get these notifications and the
information I need, that might be the better solution.
Thanks
Dave

Re: [ptp-dev] Question about performance tools framework in PTP
Dave,
I just checked in a fix that should let you select a regular application
path for a parallel launch. There are still a couple minor bugs to work
out but this should be enough to let you continue working on your tool
integration.

Wyatt
