Yes, that would be ideal. Since it's a prominent feature of the
project plan, I think we owe it to ourselves to explain what it means
:-) BTW, we should probably plan a service release (1.1.1) for after
GDB 7 comes out to make that non-stop and multi-process work as
advertised (i.e. to adject for any last minute protocol changes).

Hi,
the current support of GDB for
multi-process (in HEAD) is for targets where all processes share a
single address space. Since this is not the case
for Linux, multi-process does
not work for Linux yet. GDB should have this support by the end of the
year or soon after though.
I can put the status and
screenshots for multi-process in the N&N and I'll put an clear note
that it currently requires a specific type of target.

Hi Marc,
One section that I did not cover is Multi-Process debugging with GDB.
I wasn't sure what was the current level of support in GDB for this and
I had no way of taking any screen-shots. Also, I got some feedback
from Martin O., who is using this doc in a DSDP overview presentation
at Eclipse Summit Europe, that the "Connect" action seemed confusing.
If I remember correctly , the Connect aciton was added specifically to
enable mult-process debugging, so having this section would be helpful
there as well. Would you be able at some point to add this section to
the N&N?
Cheers,
Pawel

Hi Pawel,
this is really nice work! I think it will make promoting DSF-GDB much easier. I really like all the screen shots.
I haven't gone through it all yet, but I wanted to point out that I see weird formatting:
1- on Internet Explorer, the Smooth Stepping section is cramped into a 2-word column
2- on both IE and firefox, the line wrap-aroud seems to be for a wide screen and enables a horizontal scrollbar for me
instead of fitting on my square screen.
I'll will read through it more thoroughly, tomorrow.
Again, great work!

Subject: [dsdp-dd-dev] DD 1.1 Release "New & Noteworthy"
Hi All,
I finally got around to what I should have done months ago: put together
a New and Noteworthy page for DD
(http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/dd/development/relnotes/dd_news-1.1.html).
This was an unusually big task since we haven't had a N&N before and I
essentially had to do full overview of all the features in DD. I
covered DSF and GDB in good detail. However, I don't really have enough
knowledge of the Traditional Memory Rendering and IP-XACT editor, so I
just l added a heading with one screen cap for them. Ted and Anthony,
if you have the time and motivation, it would be very helpful if you
could fill those sections in.
The main motivation is of course to give users a quick glance of all the
cool features that we've been working. And the theory is that once we
have this initial overview in place, it will be easy to add incremental
updates in future releases. Please write back with feedback and feel
free to edit this document directly (in CVS) with updates and fixes.
Cheers,
Pawel
