Hi Christoph,
Yes we need to add it for RC1 this week
Ignore that error message -- I think it appears when you bring up the update manager dialog -- that update site is for PTP only and will exist when the juno release is finalized.
Install Egit from the normal juno repository - Juno - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno

[ptp-user] cancel May User call

alameda@xxxxxxx (Alameda, Jay) — Mon, 21 May 2012 15:54:05 GMT

Dear PTP Users and Developers,

We need to cancel this month’s call, unfortunately (originally scheduled for May 23, 2012) – I would like to focus next month’s call (June 27, 2012, 12:00PM CT, 1:00PM ET) on the New and Noteworthy features in PTP 6.0, which will be released on June 27, 2012 –

Sincerely,

Jay

[ptp-user] Eclipse file search is searching .ptp-sync

bwatt@xxxxxxx (Brian Watt) — Fri, 18 May 2012 13:57:56 GMT

When I do a Search > File it seems that Eclipse's file search is searching the contents of .ptp-sync, that is, I see it processing lots of files with names that have 20-30 hex characters. Is there someway to set a preference so that these files are ignored, and/or would it be possible to put the .ptp-sync file in .metadata so that it is not directly part of the project directory and therefore not searched.

Brian Watt, IBM

Re: [ptp-user] PTP and modules

dhudak@xxxxxxx (Dr. David E Hudak) — Thu, 17 May 2012 17:47:16 GMT

Hi Jeff,

I have a MacOS X machine (10.7.4 with the latest Xcode), attaching to our two linux clusters:  glenn (RHEL 5) and oakley (RHEL 6).

Here is the test procedure that I used:
	1.  Create a new synchronized C/C++ project
		a.  Project type:  Hello World ANSI C project, MacOSX GCC toolchain
		b.  Remote synchronization configuration for Oakely (or glenn, WLOG)
	2.  Selected the project in the Project Explorer window, right-clicked and selected properties
	3.  Under "C/C++ Build", I selected "Environment Management" and checked the box for "Use an environment management system"
		Nothing shows up!
	4.  Click "Apply", click "Close, and reopen Properties for project
	5.  This time, the module list loads!
	6.  Click "Clear selection", select new compiler (Intel compiler module in this case)
	7.  Click "Apply" and "Close"
	8.  Select the Project and click the Hammer to build.  Output:

> 12:59:31 **** Incremental Build of configuration Debug for project oak-chello2 ****
> make all 
> 
> **** Environment configuration script temporarily stored in /tmp/ptpscript_2LyRXl ****
> module purge >/dev/null 2>&1
> module load intel/12.1.0
> make all 
> Building target: oak-chello2
> Invoking: MacOS X C++ Linker
> g++  -o "oak-chello2"  ./src/oak-chello2.o   
> Finished building target: oak-chello2
>  
> 
> 12:59:54 Build Finished (took 23s.639ms)


Step 9:  frown because a GCC project on local side expects a GCC compiler on remote side.  I will often want to do GCC on the local side, icc on the remote side.

I do have a couple of comments:
	1.  Will there be support for Remote projects?  It did not 
	2.  It takes a while for the synchronized project to be created on the remote system

Regards,
Dave

Re: [ptp-user] New PTP user with Synchronization issues

jeblen@xxxxxxx (John Eblen) — Wed, 16 May 2012 20:51:31 GMT

Hi Kris

First, let me clarify a common misconception. Many users confuse synchronized projects with the use of Git and version control. Synchronized projects, however, are designed to work independently of version control, and users, ideally, do not need to know that Git is used "under the hood" (or even what Git is).

Instead, synchronized projects were designed to allow someone to work on a remote project from a local Eclipse session and, as much as possible, have it perform as if the user were working directly on the remote machine. Thus, I encourage you to think of the local Eclipse project directory and the remote project directory as a single space that is being shared. From that vantage point, there are only two spaces - the original Git repository and the Eclipse project where the files were checked out.

Git fully supports the idea of a "working directory" where you may have several extra files not in the repository. Git only stores files that are explicitly added and has mechanisms to ignore other files. So I think you can solve most of your difficulties by thinking of the synchronized project's local and remote spaces as one and by learning more about Git and EGit (and there is a lot to learn at first).

The file permission problem, though, remains, and there doesn't seem to be a simple solution. Stay tuned for more information on that... Git does store permissions and understands them. Windows, however, doesn't have this idea of executable permissions, which is what causes the problem in your case.

Hope this helps

John

Thanks John,

I think I understand the issue. I'm a relatively new git user as well, though I have worked through a few tutorials and read some of the documentation to get my mind around the work flow.   However, I'm not sure what operation could be used to update just the file permissions.

Even so, if I just updated the file permissions for the current workspace files and sync them back, wouldn't they again be lost when I pulled new changes or checked out a new branch in egit?

I take it that git doesn't have a file "executable" property like svn does? I haven't seen anything about existing properties anyway.

The point of syncing in one direction is I'd like my eclipse session to be the master - at least by default. Just avoiding certain files is only part of the equation. It's that I don't want inadvertant changes or build generated files from filtering back into my repository. Checking file extension are inadequate if there can be generated headers or other files.

In particular, the generated .ptp-sync entries and plethora of generated .gitignore files are inconvenient. I tried creating a .git/info/exclude file to skip files, but it didn't seem to take effect in egit repositories, though it worked find in a linux repository. I'm probably doing something wrong there.

Thx,
Kris

Regarding the one-way sync, can you use the file filtering mechanism to filter files on the remote server that you do not want

Hi Christoph,

You should just be able to upgrade from http://download.eclipse.org/tools/ptp/builds/nightly/juno

If you've been using a recent version of PTP (after May 7) you shouldn't need to start with a fresh workspace. Any earlier than that and you probably will need to. In any case, if you run into strange behavior after upgrading, I would recommend starting with a fresh workspace an importing the existing projects from the old workspace.

Regards,
Greg

Jeff (or whoever can answer),

could you please advise on the following two questions ? Thanks !

1. I am currently running the previous Iuno development pre-release. Do I need 
a fresh install or can I upgrade ?
2. Even if I do a fresh install, can I reuse the old (Iuno) workspaces or do I 
need to remove them and build them from scratch ?
