Hello,
I recently submitted a
patch that lets other CDT debuggers with custom source lookup participants to
contribute these participants to “C/C++/Debug/Common Source Lookup path”
preference page.
The flexibility of
Eclipse and CDT allows debuggers to be based on CDT and extend the stock CDT
source lookup algorithms.
The only missing piece
was I couldn’t add these custom source lookup participants through the CDT
preference page.
The proposed extension
point solves that.
Does anyone have
comments on the patch - too risky, not complete, other ways to achieve the same,
etc.?
Here is the thread with
the initial discussion:
http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/cdt-dev/msg15561.html
For us (TI) is enough
the patch to be in the main branch since we won’t release off the CDT 6.0.1
branch.
But other debuggers
based on CDT 6.0.1 could find the extension point
useful.
Regards
Dobrin

Subject: [cdt-dev] New extension
point for 6.0.1
Dobrin submitted a patch that adds a
new extension point. Is it acceptable for a minor version - 6.0.1? The
patch doesn't break the current API, neither it extends
it.
