| RE: [cdt-debug-dev] CDI Update Stack Frame |
|
Thanks, Dobrin. I had thought of that. However, that only
really works when you have a single thread. For Windows, when the debugger
suspend, all threads suspend (actually all sessions suspend from what I
understand). So I want to be able to look at the stack trace for any of the
threads while suspended, but only when requested. BTW, the MI implementation suspends the
caller until the MI command completes. So I’ve done that for now too. But
that’s synchronous. L. At any rate I do have my stack frame
generated from the Windows APIs! I’ll post a screenshot to my blog after
I clean it up a little. Doug Schaefer From:
cdt-debug-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:cdt-debug-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Alexiev, Dobrin Doug, In our debugger we
didn’t propagate the suspend event in Eclipse until we got the stack
frame changed event from our back end and cached all stack frames. We had to introduce a
little state machine for that. Hated -> Stack List Ready -> Running. Also, in rare case when
we wanted some stuff updated while the target was suspended we were firing
resume and then immediately suspend. These two things worked
for us on Eclipse 3.1 and 3.2. Again, we were
implementing CDI interfaces. Regards Dobrin From:
cdt-debug-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:cdt-debug-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Doug Schaefer Hey gang, I’m putting the claim that the CDI can
handle asynchronous calls to the test. For my Windows debugger integration, I have to process all
calls to the Windows API through a single thread. I have thus created a command
posting architecture (I guess it’s similar to the CDI/MI interface). Now, when the framework calls any of the getStackFrame*
methods and I don’t have the current stack frame, I dispatch a call to my
thread and return 0/null. The hope is that when I do finally get the stack
frame I can dispatch an event of some sort to let the framework know I have the
stack information. I thought a changed event on the thread would do the trick,
but I see the implementation for handling the event is empty (and besides, it
didn’t work J). Is there another
way? Thanks, Doug Schaefer |
