Summary
Nsight Eclipse Plugins Edition provides Eclipse CDT based CUDA development and debugging workflows. The NVIDIA docs cover using the tool, building CUDA projects in Docker containers, postmortem debugging, and remote debugging with CUDA-GDB inside Docker.
Detail
Nsight Eclipse Plugins are an IDE integration path for CUDA developers who use Eclipse-based workflows. They are less central than Nsight Compute and Nsight Systems in modern performance analysis, but remain part of the CUDA documentation set.
The page should connect IDE debugging users to CUDA-GDB, Compute-Sanitizer, and other Nsight tools.
Connections
- CUDA-GDB - underlying CUDA debugger for Linux-style workflows.
- Nsight-Visual-Studio-Edition - Windows Visual Studio IDE counterpart.
- Nsight-Compute - kernel performance profiler.
- Nsight-Systems - system timeline profiler.
- Compute-Sanitizer - functional correctness checker.
