Re: [cdt-dev] editing register groups

John,

As you rightly mentioned, it's a lightweight solution because you don't get the advantages that the Registers view with its detail pane provides.
I know how to make this working for DSF and if I have a time I'll try to contribute it.

Mikhail, the user can create expressions for the registers he's interested in. It seems like that's a reasonable lightweight solution to the use case. I think user-defined groups is a nice-to-have but the lack of it doesn't mean the user has resort to the cumbersome task of scrolling through the registers view.

The wording of the subject of this bug is not correct. The question is not of editing the register groups, but creating  user defined groups. This is very helpful when you have thousands of registers and don't want to scroll back and forth to look at their values. Creating a group with the registers you want to watch is a solution. I know commercial debuggers that have similar feature.

I noticed that too, I agree it’s nice to keep track of but not required for now.

Subject: [cdt-dev] editing register groups

235747 was opened as a DSF-GDB parity issue and it is currently in the high-priority bucket. The description states:This is not necessarily very practical but for feature equivalence, DSF-GDB should implement it.

I suspect that is correct--that editing register groups is a rarely used feature of the CDT debugger (CDI-GDB). If that's true, then this issue should be lowered in priority, as per the discussions we've had on this topic recently. If you know people are using it, or are very confident they are, please speak up.
