Now the names of the files that must be transferred from development host to remote host must be entered for each remote host. This subsection will describe how this will be done using the PADE Setup Files window. In this example, three files will be transferred to each host. They are manager.c, worker.c, and makefile.*, where the makefile name extension indicates for which host the makefile is appropriate.
To enter the files to be transferred to a given remote host, the user selects this host from the Host list in the PADE Setup window and then selects the Setup Files button at the top of the window. This will cause the PADE Setup Files window to appear. This window is pictured in Fig. (5.8). To create the list of files to be transferred to this remote host, the user selects the Add Entry button at the top of the window. This causes the PADE Add File window to appear. Now the user must enter the full path name of the location of the file on the development host. The easiest way to do this is to choose the File Browser button. Change the directory displayed by the file browser to the directory where manager.c is located, highlight this file in the file browser list and click the OK button. The file browser will exit and the full path name of manager.c will be entered in the Local file text-entry box in the Add File window. Now the user must enter the full path name of the intended location of manager.c on the remote host associated with this Setup Files window (the remote host is listed at the top of the Setup Files window currently open). The remote-host location for the manager/worker example must be the PVM binary directory. This directory is always the following directory.
$HOME/pvm3/bin/$PVM_ARCHOnce the text-entry box has been filled in, the user then chooses the Save button. The Add File window will exit and the file list will contain an entry containing the information just entered in the form
<local file> --> <remote file> .
To create two more entries in this list, the user highlights the existing entry and selects the Copy Entry button twice in succession. These entries are modified by highlighting one of them and choosing the Modify Entry button. The PADE Modify Entry window will appear. This window is identical to the Add File window except that text is already entered in the text-entry boxes. The user should modify these entries as appropriate to transfer the worker.c file and the makefile. When the file list is complete the user chooses the Save button. The Setup Files window will exit.
