| Re: [cdt-dev] suggested improvement to "Select Process" dialog in "Attach to Application" launcher | 
Should be possible, GDB does give us the parameters to the 
command, we just don't display them.
Can you open an enhancement bug?
 
Thanks for the suggestion, it is great to get user-feedback 
to know what is really needed.

  I have just started using the "Attach to Application" launcher 
  capability of Eclipse/CDT, and it is wonderful! The app I'm developing spawns 
  several child processes and so this functionality is very useful. I have one 
  recommendation that I couldn't find a bug or thread about, so here goes: 
  
For a given run of my application, the child processes are 
  differentiated by their command line parameters. It would be useful if the 
  process dialog in eclipse included command line parameters. This would allow 
  developers to more easily select the correct process without having to 
  memorize pids or go to a terminal and cross-reference the "ps" output. I don't 
  see any need for new options. It looks like the "Select Process" dialog has a 
  pane at the bottom where the selected process is displayed verbosely. 
  Currently, on my system, this is just the full path of the process executable. 
  Since you've already, elegantly, created enough real-estate there for a 
  verbose display, why not be verbose about it?
Am I missing something? 
  Thanks! (I am using Helios and latest CDT 8.0 build on Debian 
Testing.)
