| [cdt-dev] Debug actions are registered twice |
|
I’m just wondering, is there a need to register debug
actions ‘Run to Line’, ‘Move to Line’, ‘Resume at
Line’, and ‘Add Watch _expression_’ twice in the editor’s
context menu? These actions are registered once in org.eclipse.cdt.debug.ui
and again under org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.ui. The former plug-in looks for ‘org.eclipse.cdt.debug.ui.debuggerActive’
system property and latter plug-in looks for ‘org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.ui.debuggerActive’
property in order to display the actions. We have a proprietary debug engine based on DSF. It
doesn’t use GDB at all. The problem occurs when I start a DSF-GDB
debug session, terminate it, and start our custom DSF-based debug
session. This will result in the debug actions getting registered twice:
In our debug session, I’m setting org.eclipse.cdt.debug.ui.debuggerActive
property to true. However, if I set ‘org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.ui.debuggerActive’
to true instead, everything will work fine. Setting a GDB property doesn’t
make much sense, since our debugger is completely independent of GDB.
Something tells me we shouldn’t be registering these actions twice.
Any thoughts?? Thanks, - Navid |
