Hello all,
Jonah and I have been talking about doing a CDT 10.6.2 release within the next 2 weeks and that it should include a fix for
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=579756 and some minor dark theme fixes.
On the April CDT call[1], we discussed if there’s a way to not open the “Modules” view in the debug perspective by default. During the meeting, it
was suggested that activities could do this, but it cannot. If one defines an activity that hides the view, then it’s impossible for the user to open it if they need it.
After the meeting, Jonah found that it’s in fact CDT that is requesting opening the view to be automatically opened and this can be prevented by adding
the autoOpen=”false” attribute to the contextViewBinding node for the extension point. See
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=579759 for more details.
Would it be beneficial to anyone else than ST to also include the fix for
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=579759 that Jonah provided in 10.6.2?
Please share your thoughts!
Kind regards,
Torbjörn
