Prerequisites
- Wind River Workbench 3.3
Important
Be sure to install C++test in a path without spaces in the directory names. C:\Parasoft is a good option for a root installation. Do not install in the default location of C:\Program Files.
Windows Installation
Installing
To install the C++test Eclipse plugin into Wind River Workbench on Windows:
- Run the C++test plugin installation executable.
- Choose the setup language.
- Click Yes when a dialog asks whether you want to install C++test.
- Click Yes after you have read and agreed to the license information.
- Choose the Wind River target platform, then click Next.
- Enter your Wind River Workbench installation directory, then click OK.
- Choose the directory that contains the .eclipseproduct file.
- Enter the desired destination directory for the C++test Extension files, then click Next.
- Close Workbench if it is open, then click OK to close the dialog reminding you to close this program. C++test will then start copying files and installing the necessary files into Workbench. A dialog box with a progress indicator will open and indicate installation progress. When the installation is complete, a notification dialog box will open.
- Click the OK button to close the notification dialog box.
During the installation process C++test will try to create a link file in Workbench’s embedded Eclipse. The link file will be located in <Wind River Installation Root>/workbench-<version_number>/wrwb/platform/eclipse/links/com.parasoft.xtest.cpptest.link
, and it will contain the path to the C++test installation directory. This is the only change that the C++test installation makes inside the Wind River Workbench distribution.
Startup
After the plugin is successfully installed, you can start Wind River Workbench (with the C++test plugin installed) by launching Workbench in the usual manner.
After installation C++test will add its views to Workbench default "Application Development" perspective. Also, a separate C++test perspective will be available in Workbench.
