Source: nvidia-visual-profiler Version: 4.1.28-1 Severity: normal Tags: help
Dear Debian Orbital Alignment Team, I just uploaded a new version of nvidia-cuda-toolkit 4.1 [non-free] which contains the nvidia-visual-profiler (added in 4.1). The NVIDIA Visual Profiler [1] is an application based on Eclipse and is shipped by NVIDIA bundled and somehow integrated with Eclipse 3.6. I tried to use the Debian provided Eclipse 3.7 libraries instead but was not successful. In the end the application was starting, but only produced an empty window with the normal Eclipse menu bar. Therefore I now included the bundled Eclipse 3.6 in the nvidia-cuda-toolkit package, but I'd like to change this, if possible. I have never used Eclipse and know neither how it works by itself nor what can be done with plugins to create different applications like nvvp. Therefore I'm seeking the advice of the Eclipse Maintainers: * is it possible to replace Eclipse 3.6 with 3.7 in this application? * whats the best way to package such an Eclipse based application? (file system layout etc., dependencies, ...) Thanks in advance for your help! Andreas [1] http://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-visual-profiler PS: this is a small script that switches the working nvvp with its own copy of Eclipse 3.6 to use the Debian Eclipse libs (3.7 at the moment) by replacing the content of the plugins directory with links to /usr/lib/eclipse/... etc. ============================= #!/bin/sh set -e apt-get -y install eclipse-gef cd /usr/lib/nvidia-visual-profiler/plugins for p in com.* javax.* org.apache.* org.eclipse.* org.mortbay.* do b=${p%%_*} c="" for d in /usr/share/eclipse/plugins /usr/lib/eclipse/plugins /usr/share/eclipse/dropins/gef/eclipse/plugins do c=$(ls -1d $d/${b}_* 2>/dev/null | head -n 1) test ! -e "$c" || break done if [ -e "$p" ] && [ -e "$c" ]; then echo "$b: $p ==> $c" rm -rf $p ln -s $c . fi done =============================== __ This is the maintainer address of Debian's Java team <http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-java-maintainers>.
