Problems with eclipse plug-in...

[kevinh]

We're attempting to use the Toalview plug-in for eclipse but Totalview continuously stalls out while loading symbols and never finishes. Any idea why?

This is what we have installed now for eclipse and Totalview:

eclipse-platform-3.2.1-linux-gtk.tar.gz
org.eclipse.cdt-3.1.1-linux.x86.tar.gz
totalview.7.2.0-0-linux-x86.tar
TotalViewCDTPlugin_1.0.0.zip

You should also note that the name of the Totalview binary is misspelled in the eclipse GUI as “totalivew� when a new Debug session is created. Easily fixable but annoying.

Hello Kevin,

We do have a bug report about this issue and we're investigating. Nothing substantive to report about that yet, other than that some combinations of TotalView and Eclipse worked, and others did not. I had used

eclipse-SDK-3.2-linux-gtk.tar.gz
org.eclipse.cdt-3.1.0-I200606261600-linux.x86.tar.gz

And had problems with TotalView 8.0.0-1, and TotalView 8.0.0-0, but not with TotalView 7.3.0-4. Which seemed a bit odd to me, as 7.3.0-4 and 8.0.0-1 should be functionally equivalent, but differ in the way licenses are applied/calculated.

You're at a version a bit above what I tested with the Eclipse and CDT, a version or two behind in TotalVIew, and the plugin hasn't changed at all.
So you might have better luck with a different mix, but it is something we will be taking a look at.

And, a last note, this is not really the forum for reporting bugs. They should be sent directly to support@etnus.com. I and others will respond here as we can, but we're dedicated to watching the support stream, and can't guarantee a timely response here.
