I can't find Nsight Eclipse Edition after cuda installation.

I installed cuda11.1 on Ubuntu18.04(Nvidia Driver was installed before),and no error shows. But when I input "nvcc -V",and "nsight" on terminal, it shows "command 'nvcc' not found","command 'nsight' not found". I solved the former problem by adding environment variables to ~/.bashrc.And in folder /usr/local/cuda-11.1/bin, I can't find executable file "nsight"(executable file of Nsight Eclipse Edition),which should have been there after cuda installation. Someone has met this before?

    There is no Nsight Eclipse Edition anymore. NVIDIA ship plugins for standard Eclipse for C++ instead. Again documentation here -- https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/nsightee-plugins-install-guide/index.html – talonmies Oct 20 '20 at 08:14
  • Thanks! I saw Nsight Eclipse plugins in installation guide but I didn't realize that is the new IDE.Thanks for your help! – L.K Oct 20 '20 at 08:41

Quoting from the CUDA 11 release notes:

CUDA Developer Tools

  • Nsight Eclipse Edition standalone is dropped in CUDA 11.0.

There is no longer a standalone fork of Eclipse for the Nsight IDE. Instead plugins are shipped which run inside in the standard Eclipse IDE for C++. See here in the documentation for installation and use.

  • I just wanted to add a note that installing cuda will also install the nsightee plugin zip file. as a result, you'll be able to find it in your local machine. In my case it is located in ==> `/usr/local/cuda-11.5/nsightee_plugins/com.nvidia.cuda.repo-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.zip`. This file should be used inside of the eclipse ide – Saeed Masoomi Mar 24 '22 at 12:01
