Description Andrew Overholt CLA 2011-06-03 15:22:05 EDT
The Valgrind user guide currently says that it only supports Memcheck, Massif, and Cachegrind.  We should update it to reflect the Helgrind support.

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Linux_Tools_Project/Valgrind/User_Guide#Overview

... among other places.

Let's worry about this post-Indigo.

At the minimum, could we hyperlink to original valgrind / helgrind docs ?
I'd also like to see a context help ID from the helgrind launch.

Targeting 0.9.0
Comment 3 Andrew Overholt CLA 2011-11-03 08:34:10 EDT
Sorry, this didn't make 0.9.0.  Let's aim for 0.9.1.
Comment 4 Andrew Overholt CLA 2011-11-18 15:50:51 EST
Re-assigning to Daniel as it makes sense for him to write it :)
Comment 5 Daniel Henrique Barboza CLA 2011-11-21 13:14:51 EST
I will have a look into this after https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=364198 

What's the release date for 0.9.1 ?
Comment 6 Andrew Overholt CLA 2011-11-21 13:29:51 EST
No date for 0.9.1 yet.  It's slushy since critical bug fixes could make it happen very soon and even make a 0.9.2 shortly thereafter.
Comment 7 Daniel Henrique Barboza CLA 2011-12-13 07:06:34 EST
I'm involved in Perf enhancements right now but haven't forgot about this work.

Is the date for 0.9.1 still unknown? Because I can rush this work instead of Perf if we're running close to this new release.
Comment 8 Andrew Overholt CLA 2011-12-13 10:06:27 EST
There is no date for 0.9.1 yet so it's up to you.  It's likely 0.9.1 will happen before a release including perf (we won't add that in a x.x.1 release) so maybe get this finished first?
Comment 9 Daniel Henrique Barboza CLA 2011-12-21 07:44:58 EST
Hello,

I've added a new section for Helgrind:


http://wiki.eclipse.org/Linux_Tools_Project/Valgrind/User_Guide#Using_Helgrind


I've also added the link for this page here:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Linux_Tools_Project/Valgrind/User_Guide#Overview


Let me know if more documentation is needed.
Comment 10 Andrew Overholt CLA 2011-12-21 17:33:19 EST
This is great, Daniel, thanks!

I've opened a bug (bug 367373) so we re-generate the HTML and include it in the doc plugin.
