Bug 125895

Description Navid Mehregani 2006-01-31 14:13:16 EST

When the user right clicks on a probe file, they can select probekit->compile to compile a probe.  This option is completely useless and should be removed for the following reasons:

- When the user wants to apply the probes statically, the probe is automatically compiled when the user instruments his/her application by selecting probekit->instrument thus there is never a need to compile the probes by selecting probekit->compile.  In fact when dynamic probekit is included in TPTP, the probes will automatically be compiled as the user makes modifications and saves the changes.

- For dynamic instrumentation, this feature is disabled.  An extension point is implemented that pops up an error message whenever the user selects this option.  The error message essentially indicates that the user shouldn't select this option.  If the option shouldn't be selected by the user, it should never be available to the user in the first place.

This feature should be completed in 4.2i2 before dynamic probekit is introduced in TPTP.
