Hello All,
Sorry for the late email on this. I believe Pete Nichols or I have been
in contact with most of you over email already, so hopefully everyone
who has expressed interest in this meeting is already attending.
Many thanks to Pete and IBM for hosting the meeting. Below is
information about the event as well as a list of attendees. This
meeting is open to the public, of course, so please let us know if you'd
like to attend but are not already on the list.
Also below is an initial agenda that Alan Boxall put together with some
slight modifications by me.
Doug
------------------------------------------------------
Working Agenda
Introductions
Summarize current status of DSDP proposal
Agree on the goals for this meeting
Debug core (org.eclipse.debug)
- Flexible hierarchy (Current debug core enforces a fixed hierarchy)
- Propose solution to allow for flexible parent/child relationships
(presenter: Alan Boxall)
- Solution 1: Use extension point to register hierarchy. Debug core
would read and use this hierarchy.
- Solution 2: Use getAdapter code to "discover" hierarchy
- This would influence the content of views... e.g. Debug and Register
views
- Multiple language support
- Allow different "Targets" to exist under a single target
Debug views
- View update policies (presenter: Samantha Chan)
- Propose that models drive view updates instead of current method of
views reacting to a debug event
e.g in R31 after a step over the model is asked 27 times "Can you step
over?" in attempt to get the correct enable/disable state of actions and
buttons
- Customize existing view content for views supplied by debug core
Possible presenter: Wind River
- New common views
- debug console, does someone have one that can be contributed?
- Specialized memory views/logical structures
- Does the 3.1 memory support satisfy all requirements?
- What about logical structures? Are they at the correct level of
detail?
- Editor integration
- Should core debug help integrate "default" editor with debug
function?
- Breakpoint view
- Do the current "Global" breakpoints satisfy the requirements of
DSDP implementers?
- Responses to view use-cases by Darin (via phone)
Debuggee interaction
- Handle slower connections, handle serialized connections
- Current threaded debug core is very difficult to connect to a debug
engine that can only process commands serially
- Possible solution: have mode that forces serialized calls to debug
target
Scalability of Debug view (Presenter: Wind River)
- How to control the context for content of views
- How can we help a user work with many processes?
- Filters
- Visual queues (Use of colours was suggested)
Wrap up
Discuss plans for next meeting
