How To Update Thread Names in the Debug View [message #1076080]

Hello,

We are using CDT/CDI and are trying to update thread names for local applications.

We have figured out how to update the thread names after the target is suspended, but we are not sure how/if we can trigger an update so that the Debug View shows the new names.

The new names do show up after we resume.

Is there a way to force the Debug View refresh while we are still in suspended state?

Thank you,
Carmen

Hello,

I've managed to find a solution for my problem. The idea is to fire a ChangeEvent for each thread within the target thread list, while in suspended state. This will refresh the thread info in the debug view.

CDebugTarget cTarget = (CDebugTarget) target;
IThread[] iThreadList =  cTarget.getThreads();

for (int i =0; i < iThreadList .length; i++)
{
   ((CThread)iThreadList[i]).fireChangeEvent( DebugEvent.CONTENT );
}

Here target is of IDebugTarget type.
