Setup:
- Eclipse Juno running on Windows 7
- GNU toolchain located on a Linux build server
- ClearCase repository accessible from a Windows 7 machine and a Linux build server
I want to open a C++ project from Eclipse in Windows and be able to build the project on the remote Linux build server. What is the best way to accomplish this now in 2013 with the state of Eclipse development?
(There were some dated questions with partial solutions.)
You would need to make a snapshot view directly on a linux path, which is possible through samba: your Windows server would be used for the view_server.exe, but the root directory of your snapshot view would be on Linux.
That leaves you with the issue to execute the gnu toolset from Linux from your Windows session. It is discussed in this 2011 thread.
Basically add a new "Remote Builder" option for managed build projects.
Similar to the Internal Builder, but it would invoke the compile commands over SSH or
whatever protocol the user chose.
It would be a RMB (Remote Managed Build), as in "Remote building".

Using VSCode, is it possible to execute a node.js script on a remote linux or windows system without setting up a full Visual Studio Code Remote Development Environment?
Assume the following:
VSCode installed on client (Windows)
remote system is a virtual machine running on the client. It has access to the project folder (including the script to be executed and the node modules) on the client. Node is installed on the remote system.
Actually I just need something like a launch configuration which executes an SSH command for linux, for windows maybe something else. With these assumptions (shared project folder between remote system and client), is that possible without setting up a full Visual Studio Code Remote Development Environment? I don't need remote editing or debugging.
I have the following:
1) Windows machine with Eclipse CDT (Currently Luna v4.4.1)
2) A Linux machine that has the repository with code and the Linux GCC, make etc..
I want to connect to the Linux via Remote System Explorer in Eclipse, edit, build, debug and run all from the Windows machine in Eclipse.
I have been successful in setting up the SSH connection and in the project explorer, I can access the remote repository and edit the code.
The issue I am having is building, debugging and running it.
How can I let eclipse know I want to compile it remotely? The Project -> Build functionality is blocked out when attempting for the remote repository. It only allows it for local repo's. But I already have an SSH connection.. Is there not a way for it to know that I want to use the remote GCC too?
Also, for debugging, in the Debug configuration it seems to want a local version of the build, even though I selected remote debugging.
Sorry I don't have any error logging to report as i'm just struggling on the first bit of how I go about doing the remote build in the IDE.
Maybe this is not possible?
Is there a system I could implement on Linux(Debian) to have nightly builds from a github repository targeted to windows(.exe files)?
I know programs like CCNET and TeamCity but they are for windows.
Currently we use Visual Studio 2013 to build our project(We also support Code""Blocks but dont recommend it).
This is how we do it:
Run Jenkins on Linux (Ubuntu)
Run build slaves on several WinXP systems to build the code, this can even be done on your own laptop for example. Of course you need to leave it on overnight.
I am using mono 2.8 with Visual Studio 2008. I have installed "mono-2.8-gtksharp-2.12.10-win32-9".
I am creating a windows application and its setup solution is working fine on Windows OS. But when I am creating package for Linux and follow the instruction from http://mono-tools.com/Package.aspx
Step-1 to Step-5 are done but after Step-5, I am clicking on Create Package and its do nothing even its not create any file into selected folder.
Please help..
When you choose the host for it to build the package on, make sure you are choosing a SUSE or RHEL server, or the process will silently fail.
I received a src archive from a friend who develops Qt apps on Linux on Kdevelop IDE. Is it possible to load the Kdevelop project in Windows in some IDE ? Is there a Kdevelop port on Windows without Cygwin/Msys etc ? Are there any workarounds or I should I have to install Linux and take charge?
Update : I visited the page as mentioned in the below answer, but there's no Kdevelop package in the KdeWin installer . See here
KDevelop 4 will also be available on Windows (together with a lot of other KDE4 software). It is currently in beta, but you can download a Windows installer. The installer also lets you install other KDE4 software and should come with the QT development files you will need to develop QT applications.
AFAICT, there is no port to Windows of Kdevelop4 and Kdevelop3 was run with cygwin - which, IMHO, is not really a robust solution.
It would probably be easier, and better, to install a Linux distro in a virtual machine and go at it from there. If you don't need access to Windows, you could just install a Linux on a separate hardrive and/or partition.
Install linux on virtual machine such as vmware or virtual box.
