I'm implementing a debugger and I'm unable to discern between halting for
a breakpoint vs. stepping (this information isn't reliably exposed to me)
So far, it doesn't seem to impact the UI or interactions with the user, at
least within my debugger. It seems I should be firing the correct events,
and I don't know who else might be listening. Is there any chance I'll
run into trouble here if, say, I'm always using the BREAKPOINT event, even
if it was a step or a user suspend which caused the halt??
Thanks,
Adam

There is no "breakpoint" event. There is a suspend event, with a detail that
tells why the suspend happened - a breakpoint or a step, etc.

Yes, sorry, this is what I meant. Given that I cannot make the
distinction, I am faced with using something like "BREAKPOINT" for detail,
regardless of the actual cause (vs. stepping, client request). Just
wondering if any Eclipse code (outside of my own) actually cares what's in
this event. I'm assuming it isn't required for some sort of debugger
state information or UI.
Thanks,
Adam

The debugger will automatically switch to or open the debug perspective when
a breakpoint is hit, and the window containing the debugger will be
activated (i.e. flash on Windows).
