Re: [ptp-user] Running parallel application with PTP.
|
Magda,
Our plan is to make the build step optional in the 2.0 release. The
idea is that you'll be able to use the update manager in the same way
you install any other Eclipse plugin, and so avoid all the problems
people have been having. We've also clarified the downloads page to
make it clearer.
Regards,
Greg

Greg, I think it is very important. Since it is something unusual and
unexpected. The installation instructions are perfect but it is
difficult to find them. I think that titling it something like:
installation instruction under the documentation is enough. But this
is not a release notes. This is very important information how to
build the PTP. If I can't install easily, I will not use it. But I
guess this is a first week of the new release so I realize that
everything needs time.
But my kind request is to expose and state clearly on the web page the
installation procedure. With Eclipse I am used to install plugins via:
(1) untaring, unzipping to the plugins/features Eclipse directories or
(2) using download/update managers. And I think I am not the only
person as an Eclipse user used to such a procedure.
The other solution is to put this (sh BUILD) into the
installation/build script. Since this is something that regular
Eclipse user may not be aware of. Especially if he is new to the PTP.

Go to the PTP downloads page (use downloads link on left hand side of
http://eclipse.org/ptp). There's a link to release notes in text.
Beth is making it more prominent.
