Re: [ptp-user] Eclipse question

[Wyatt Spear <wspear@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings Markus,

I believe there is support for synchronizing a project between multiple workspaces, but I haven't done it myself. If memory serves me right you can specify the same location of the remote source directory in each workspace, then make sure you've saved/closed one workspace before opening the other. I believe there is a context menu option for synchronized projects that will allow you to force synchronization. There may be a cleaner/more automatic way to handle this though. I'm going to forward this question to the PTP mailing list and see if anyone has any experience with this use case.

Regards,

Wyatt

Hey Wyatt,

You're an Eclipse expert, right? ;-)  Then I have a (simple) question
for you...

After a couple of years, I'm re-evaluating Eclipse again for software
development.  The last time it wasn't convincing enough to make me stop
using vim+shell...  I've already managed to set up Scalasca as a PTP
synchronized C/C++ Makefile project and can build it locally and on
a remote system.  That's a good starting point.  Now, if I understood
it correctly, I could also synchronize with multiple remote systems.
But I was wondering whether the synchronization also works the other
way around.  The problem is that I'm developing from multiple systems,
in particular my laptop as well as a desktop in my office.  Does this
work, too?

If yes, here is the master question: How do I keep the two Eclipse
setups in sync?  What I've found on StackOverflow didn't sound very
promising.  Do you know a solution?

Thanks,
Markus
