What
perspective are you already IN when you do the above? The
context menus may look different but all those
things should be there somewhere, perhaps
under another level of menus or parent folder in dialog,
etc. depending on your perspective.
I'm in the C/C++ perspective. The Window > Open Perspective menu
contains Debug, Team Synchronizing, and Other... which in turn lists
C/C++ (default), CVS Repository Exploring, Debug, Planning,
Resource, and Team Synchronizing.
Is there anything in the environment that might influence which
plugins will load or how they impact eclipse? E.g., here's the
contents of eclipse.ini:
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.1.0.v20100507.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.1.0.v20100503
-product
org.eclipse.epp.package.cpp.product
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256M
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Xms40m
-Xmx384m
You might
restart eclipse with the -clean parameter and see if that
makes any difference.
Unfortenately, the -clean parameter does not seem to change
anything.

When you use RDT, you have a choice
between Remote Tools and RSE as the "Remote Provider"
>Do I need PTP for remote C++
development, as as prerequisite for RDT, or not at all?
Parts of PTP are needed by RDT; the
pre-reqs should pull that in but installing the PTP
End-user Runtime, as you said you did, is safest.
I'm not familiar with Eclipse Colorer so
can't help there.

Forkel ---08/30/2010 12:24:26 PM--- Thanks for your help. I
installed all software through Help > Install New
Software... and
Thanks for your help.
I installed all software through Help > Install New
Software... and never noticed any other software packages
being pulled in besides the one(s) I had selected.
I installed the software in three steps, looking for changes
in the user interface after each step:
1. PTP Remote Development Tools (RDT), Version 4.0.0
2. PTP RDT Remote Tools Support, Version 4.0.0, plus Remote
System Explorer End-User Runtime, Version 3.2.0
3. Parallel Tools Platform (PTP) End-User Runtime, Version
4.0.0
I then activated http://download.eclipse.org/tools/ptp/updates/helios and the updates were detected and installed
automatically after a restart.

I use context menu in project
explorer view and Now > Remote C/C++ project is
available
I also have Window > Open Perspective... Other ...
Remote C/C++
My Eclipse installation seems to be
pretty stubborn as far as changes to the user interface are
concerned. As already reported, there is no Window > Open
Perspective > Remote C/C++ and no File > New >
Remote C/C++ Project. There also is no New > Remote C/C++
project in the project explorer's context menu and no Window
> Open Perspective > Other > Remote System Explorer
or anything else related to RSE anywhere I looked. Also, the
Eclipse Colorer plugin does not show up anywhere.
Could there be something wrong with my Eclipse installation
altogether?
Anything in the error log that
looks suspicious?
No.
If you are using RemoteTools as
the service provider (instead of RSE) then it will move
the server componet (rdt-server.jar) to the target
machine for you, under the covers.
I downloaded rdt-server-linux-4.0.2.tar from
an Eclipse mirror, wrapped it into a Debian daemon package and
installed that packaged. That wouldn't have been necessary?
Where would rdt-server.jar end up on the target machine if
copied automagically?
The interdependencies of PTP, RSE, and RDT are still not very
clear to me. Do I have a choice between RDT and RSE when I
want to develop on a remote Linux machine? Do I need PTP for
remote C++ development, as as prerequisite for RDT, or not at
all?
