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
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.
