[news.eclipse.tools.hyades] Re: how to profile plugins?

["Richard Duggan" <rduggan@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Neil,
I will try and get you up and running profiling plugins.   Unfortunately, we
have not been able to integrate with the eclipse launcher yet to make this
an easy task.  The best way to profile plugins is with a separate workbench.
The steps are as follows.

1.  Launch the workbench that contains the Hyades driver.
2.  Ensure the RAServer is running.
3.  Lauch your workbench with the code you want to profile. To enable
profiling you can add the  "-vmargs -XrunpiAgent" to the end of your eclipse
parameter list.
4.  Attach to the profiled workbench using the hyades workbench.
5.  Set your profiling options to narrow the classes to those inside your
plugin.

Please let me know if there is more I can do to help,
Richard.
