The installation of the IBM RAD plugin is started by selecting
IBM RAD 6.x on the
and clicking on [Integrate]
Reminder: Please close IBM RAD while performing the plugin
installation. If you are performing the installation from JProfiler's
setup wizard, please complete the
entire setup first before starting IBM RAD.
A file selector will then prompt you to locate the installation directory of IBM RAD. The installation
directory must contain an eclipse directory.
eclipse provides shared infrastructure for profiling plugins that allows only one active
profiler at a time. If another profiler has registered itself in eclipse, JProfiler will
show a collision message dialog at startup. While eclipse does not ship with any profilers,
IBM RAD 6.x has an integrated profiler. The way in which eclipse selects the profiler that's bound to
the "Profile" buttons is undefined. As it happens, the JProfiler plugin is selected before the integrated
profiler. To get rid of the collision message that is shown at startup, please perform the following steps:
-
Locate eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.hyades.trace.ui_n.n.n/plugin.xml where n.n.n is a version
number like 3.0.1
-
Replace all instances of "profile" with "tptp" in the above file. Please note that the quotes are part of
the search and replace expressions. If you remove JProfiler, you can revert this change by replacing "tptp"
with "profile".
-
Delete the directory eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi. The plugin cache will be rebuilt
on the next startup of RAD. This is necessary since otherwise RAD does not notice the above change.
