Re: [dsdp-dd-dev] Using DSF MI/GDB debugger on Windows

We have a debugger based on Eclipse CDT CDI GDB/MI interface. We are looking to migrate to DSF. 
Is DSF GDB/MI implementation for Windows and Linux available now 100% complete?  Is it a good candidate for 
replacing CDT CDI MI/GDB implementation? Any instructions available for migration?
    
We have focused on Linux for DSF GDB/MI, but we do try to have windows work as well.  There are a couple
of issues on windows currenty but we will try to address them.  I'm not sure we can say DSF GDB/MI is 100%
complete but I believe it is at a good usable stage.  It does not have all the features of CDI yet
but we will keep on making it evolve to include those missing features (no promise on the timeline :-( )

As for migration, I'll let someone else answer that since I'm not experienced there.

  
The DSF-GDB looks very similar to CDI-GDB in some areas, but it's architecture if fundamentally different.  Before starting any migration work I would recommend going through the EclipseCon tutorial exercises first:
