Re: [cdt-dev] Interfacing Eclipse Workbench UI with GNU debugger functions
|
If you need details you have to look in the code.
In general CDT (CDI/gdb) launches gdb in mi mode and keeps input/output stream for dbg.
When command received it send text command to input stream of gdb and wait for response, then parses response and update UI.

Hello,
I am asking this question again because even after reading some articles
I havent exactly understood what to do. So please help me out.
I want to know how the Eclipse Workbench UI communicates with the GNU
debugger. What I mean is in the Eclipse for C/C++, when we press the
step over or resume or continue buttons in the menu, what happens behind
the scenes? As in how is the GNU gdb invoked? How does gdb know which
function to execute? How does the UI communicate with gdb? I have added
a custom function to the gdb(does not matter what the function is..) and
I want to add a button to the Eclipse workbench such that pressing the
button will call the gdb and that function in particular. I want to know
how Eclipse workbench UI interacts with the GNU gdb. How do I go about
doing this?
Thanks, Rohit
