Re: [cdt-debug-dev] Source files outside the CDT project

Hi,

I remember reading a reply to a previous post on this issue where one of the CDT guys said that this issue was related to the way Eclipse treats files inside a workspace differently from files outside a workspace but that this issue was going to be fixed in Eclipse 3.0 and that CDT 2.0 would benefit from that fix automatically (presumably since the generic org.eclipse.debug component would then be able to handle breakpoints in files outside of a workspace).

Is this still a problem in Eclipse 3.0 / CDT 2.0???

What is the plan for source files outside the CDT project?

Will they eventually become "full-fledged members of society"?

Some symptoms of that such files are paria:

- I can't set a breakpoint by using open external + clicking in the left
margin
- Translation from CygWin path -> Windows path is not automatic &
bullitproof and CDT has a hard time opening source files without
producing various and sundry errors.

Fixing this would seriously undermine Insights remaining strong points.
