Hi!

That's quite a rough piece of code, but should work... ;-)
You may want to use it to better understand how that CDI stuff works.

//=====================

       CDebugTarget target;

       // retrieve a valid target here...

       if (target== null || target.isDisconnected() ||
target.isTerminated())
                       return;

       MISession session =
((Target)(target.getCDITarget())).getMISession();

       try {
               String myGdbCommand = "<type your command here>";
               session.postCommand(new MICommand(MIVersion.MI1,
myGdbCommand));
       }
       catch (Exception e) {
               // do whatever you need to handle the exception
       }

//=====================

Ciao,
       Giuseppe.
