I think giving the
            user more flexibility is better, so if it is possible to
            edit these attributes
      at any time, it would
            be nice to support it.
       
      As you know, changing
            some of these attributes at any time may cause some
            complexity
      in CDT (e.g., changing
            an attribute may not be supported by GDB and will require
            CDT
      to delete and
            re-create a breakpoint with the new value of the
            attribute) but I don't think this
      is a major problem, as
            long as someone can code that support :)
    
    Thanks Marc.  This is exactly the problem.  I'd like to make these
    properties editable, but I don't know if it will break someone out
    there that can't handle changing these on an existing breakpoint.

        Hi All,
        While working on bug 360588 I've come across a strange problem:
        many of the breakpoint properties that are set during breakpoint
        creation are not editable afterwards.  This includes:
        
          - Watchpoint
            
              - _expression_
 
- Read 
- Write 
- Unit 
 
- Function
            
          
- Event
            
          
- All
            
              - Type: Hardware/Software/Regular
 
- Temporary 
 
In order to implement the ability to edit the breakpoint on
          create, I make some of these fields editable only when
          breakpoint is being created, however I don't know if this is
          necessary.  So my question is:
        
        Are these breakpoint parameters intentionally read-only?  Or
          should we let the user edit them just as all the other
          editable parameters?
        
        Thanks,
          pawel
