Bug 337133

Description Greg Watson 2011-02-14 10:04:51 EST

A) Ubuntu, Eclipse and PTP installation

Prerequisites: Ubuntu 10.10, 64-bit
1. Install the packages mpich2, libmpich2-dev, libmpich-1.2, cmake, cmake-data
2. Download Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Linux Developers (includes Incubating components) (Linux 64-Bit version)
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-cc-developers/heliossr1
3. Unpack the .tar.gz file in a folder (e.g. /home/andrea/software/eclipse)
4. Run Eclipse, select as default workspace /home/andrea/code/workspace
5. Help->Install New Software
   Work with: Helios - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios
   Select: General Purpose Tools -> Parallel Tools Platform (PTP) End-User Runtime
PTP Remote Development Tools (RDT)
Remote System Explorer End-User Runtime
PTP Graphical Explorer of MPI Programs (GEM)
and install them
6. Restart Eclipse

B) SDM compilation

Follow the same instructions on the PTP release notes to compile the sdm
   1. Download the (ptp-proxy) server zip file from here: [1]
   2. Copy the server zip file to the target machine
   3. Unzip the server zip file into a temporary location
   4. Change to the proxy directory
   5. Locate the following directory, org.eclipse.ptp.linux.x86_64_4.0.5.201011100956/
   6. Change to this directory and run the command: 
     sh ./BUILD
    7. Copy the executable (./bin/sdm) in /home/andrea/software/eclipse/

C) Create and import a cmake project

1. Create a folder (outside the workspace) (e.g. /home/andrea/code/test)
2. Create two subfolders in test, build/ and src/
Create test.c and CMakeLists.txt in src

test.c contains:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char*argv[]) {
   printf("Hello world\n");
}

The CMakeLists.txt contains:

cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 2.6)
project (Test)
add_executable(test test.c)

3. cd build, then run 
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -G"Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" ../src
4. From Eclipse:
File -> Import -> General -> Existing Projects into Workspace
Select root directory : /home/andrea/code/test/build 
and import the project
6. Parallel Runtime -> Resource Managers -> Add Resource Manager
MPICH2, Local, Local, Tunnelling: node, localhost, click Next
Use default commands, Use default location, next
Use default name and description, DESELECT Automatically start resource manager..., Finish
7. From a console type mpd &
8. From Eclipse Start the resource manager
9. Run -> Debug Configurations -> New Parallel Appliication
Resource Manager: MPICH2
Application:
  - Parallel Project: Test-Debug@build
  - Application Program: /home/andrea/code/test/build/test
  - Debugger: SDM, Path /home/andrea/software/eclipse/sdm
Click on Debug


The debugger starts, but when you try to give a look at the code,
the editor says:
Could not open the editor: Editor could not be initialized.
Exception:
java.lang.NullPointerException
