• .metadata, containing information that the GUI needs as an Eclipse application
• Default_Project (native mode) or Default Project (client mode), which
is a placeholder project folder
Native (Local) GUI
This is the simpler method. At a shell prompt on the Integrity server where the
measurements will be made, enter:
$ caliper –g [--jre path]
This starts the GUI in its own X11 window. This window can be displayed directly on
the server’s console or on a remote system that supports the X11 Windows protocol.
Optionally, you can specify the path to the JRE to be used.
Remote GUI
For instructions on how to install the HP Caliper GUI on a Windows or Linux desktop
system, see the README file in the gui_clients subdirectory in the HP Caliper home
directory.
You will need to copy the appropriate GUI client (in the gui_clients subdirectory)
to your Windows or Linux desktop system and unpack it. Then, start the GUI from
your desktop using the following executable file. Invoke it from a shell prompt or
double-click it in a folder:
• On Windows: Caliper.exe
• On Linux: Caliper
At startup, the GUI prompts you for the login information needed to connect it to the
remote HP Caliper server on the Integrity system where you want to make
measurements. See Figure 3-9.
