| [cdt-debug-dev] Debugger changes |
|
Hi,
In order to fix https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=119683 and
to support more flexible launch configurations I submitted changes
that include an extension of the "ICDIDebugger" interface.
The changes shouldn't affect the implementations
based on the old API, but debugger implementers are encouraged to
use the "ICDIDebugger2" interface.
Three old launch configuration
delagates (CoreFileLaunchDelegate, LocalAttachLaunchDelegate,
LocalRunLaunchDelegate) are still available, but the new LocalCDILaunchDelegate
class is used for all launch configuration types provided by CDT.
The following changes are made to the gdb/mi
plugins and may affect some implementations.
1. The new static "createSession" method is added
to MIPlugin. It starts a gdb session without issuing commands to gdb. For more
information see the javadocs. The corresponding constructor is added to
MISession. The old createCSesion methods are marked as deprecated.
2. The AbstractGDBCDIDebugger class provides basic
implementation needed to implement gdb/mi based debuggers. The standard debugger
implementations (gdb, Cygwin gdb and gdbserver) that extend this class are
added.
Except for https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=119683
these are also initial steps to allow the custom command factories
contributions.
As I have already mentioned, the old
implementations shouldn't be affected. Please, contact me ASAP if
you encounter problems.
Thank you,
Mikhail Khodjaiants
