Re: [ptp-user] cannot convert C project to synchronized project

[John Eblen <jeblen@xxxxxxx>]

Hi

For Kepler, we have decoupled synchronized projects from CDT. As a result, there are now two types of configurations - sync configurations and CDT build configurations. The former decides the sync location and where builds occur. The latter is the normal CDT build configuration used for configuring compilers, build options, etc. The help pages have more detailed information. Please let us know if it is still confusing after reading the help.

The last page of the conversion wizard is for mapping the new sync configurations (remote and local) to one of the existing build configurations, of which your project only has one. You can create additional build configurations either before or after using the conversion wizard.

The above description was for kepler-M7. I now retried with kepler plus the recent update to PTP 7.0.1 and Photran 8.1.1 . The convert wizard still does not work as expected.

 

In the above description, the last three lines have to be replaced by the following lines.

- I am asked for remote and local build configurations, but I am only offered one choice for both - the existing "default" configuration. I haven't seen any button fro creating a new configuration.

- the wizard initiates the first snchronization, which completes OK

- the wizzard appears to exit normally.

- there is still only one build configuration, and I have no clue whether this is a local or remote configuration.

 

Is this what I should expect ? I was expecting to have two configurations, one for local build, one for remote build, with different tool chains (locally GNU compiler and OpenMPI, remotely Intel compiler and IBM PE).

 

If this is not a bug but working as designed, I still would complain about it. The wizard leaves you in the middle of nowhere without any clue how to get where you want to be.

 

Setting up synchronized projects with both, local and remote build and run configurations are essential to me. I will stick with iuno and not move to kepler until this is fixed.
