[news.eclipse.tools.hyades] Re: launch remote application

[Luca Di Stefano <luca.distefano@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Extracted from the help:

# To launch an external Java Process, follow these steps:

   1. Double click on External Java Application. A new configuration is 
created.
   2. On the Host tab, specify the Host name or IP address and the 
Agent Controller port (if different from the default). Click Add, then 
switch to the Main tab.
   3. Select the Java Class on the file system.
   4. You may need to specify where to find the Class path, directory, 
and JAR file.
   5. You may specify Parameters, VM arguments, and Environment 
Variables, as needed.


Step 1 and 2 are ok.

Step 3:
what you think about filesystem? 
/home/pmyproject/src/org/lds/test/MyTest.class or the classic 
org.lds.test.MyTest ?
... OK in the document "Tutorial: Analyzing the profiling data from a 
Java process" I discover that the second choice is the correct one.

But you say "Select the Java Class .." how? the button is disabled and 
is enabled only if I select the rac on localhost. I think they are other 
constraints about configuration of the remote rac: wich are??.
Note, I configured the remote rac in this way:

Specify the fully qualified path of "java" (e.g. /usr/java1.4/jre/bin/java):
  Default>"/opt/java1.4/jre/bin/java" (Press <ENTER> to accept the 
default value)
  New value>
Network access mode (ALL=allow any host, LOCAL=allow only this host, 
CUSTOM=list of hosts):
  Default>"ALL" (Press <ENTER> to accept the default value)
  New value>
Please enter the JBoss Application Server Home:
  Default>"" (Press <ENTER> to accept the default value)
  New value>
Please enter the JOnAS Application Server Home:
  Default>"" (Press <ENTER> to accept the default value)
  New value>

Step 4: How ? again the button is disabled, I suppose the same problem 
of above.

Step 5: Never reached....


Mybe have something to do with pluginconfig.xml ?  I deployed my project 
under %RAC_SERVER%/plugins /myproject/config/pluginconfig.xml but 
nothing changes.

There is someone that have an idea how it works?

bye,
