| Disable All in Breakpoints view |
In the Breakpoints view, you can disable all the breakpoints using the new Disable All context-menu option available on right-click.
|
| Termination of child processes of launched OS processes can be configured |
Since Eclipse 4.18 child processes (descendants) of an operating system process launched from Eclipse are terminated too,
when the launched process is terminated (for example by clicking the terminate button).
It is now possible to configure in the Launch Configuration whether the child processes of a launched process should be terminated too or if they should stay alive, in case the launched processes is terminated. You can control this with the checkbox Terminate child processes if terminating the launched process in the Common tab of the Run/Debug Configurations dialog. By default this checkbox is selected and child processes are terminated too.
