Re: [dsdp-dd-dev] Problem in debugging with DSF.

A full copy of the log found in <workspace>/.metadata/.log would be very helpful too.

<--- PROBLEM1 ---> 

Environment: 
OS: Windows XP Professional, SP2. 
    
I don't have acces to that environment so I won't be able to try out
your test.
But we can try to address it by email only.

  
Eclipse: 3.4.1 
CDT: 5.0.1 
DSF: 1.1.0 - latest plugins taken from CVS (dev.eclipse.org,
    
/cvsroot/dsdp)

You should probably take the 1.1.0 official release at
http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/dd/downloads/.
The latest plugins are most probably fine but in rare cases may not
always work.
Also, for your info, DSF has migrated to CDT so the plugins will
continue to elvolve in
/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf and
/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf-gdb

  
Debugged application: simple C application with single method( main()
    
) that contains several printouts. 
  
SCENARIO1: 
1. Line breakpoint without actions is set. 
2. Application is debugged with DSF. 

Problem1: Threads change to 'Suspended' state, but call stack isn't
    
shown. 
  
Problem2: Line with reached breakpoint isn't colored. 
Problem3: The following mesages are displayed in console: 
mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH] 
mi_cmd_stack_list_frames: Usage: [FRAME_LOW FRAME_HIGH] 
mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH] 
    
Since you have the plugins checked-out, you can enable tracing so we can
see the commands.
Before you launch the eclipse that will run DSF, go to your launch
configuration and 
select the Tracing tab.  Find the plugin org.eclipse.dd.mi and check the
box,
as well as the debug box on the right-hand panel for that plugin.
You can then reproduce this and you will see the commands that are being
sent.
If you can copy paste the commands that match those errors (or the whole
session
would be great.)
 
 
  
SCENARIO2: 
1. Line breakpoint with Resume action is set. 
    
I don't think we support Actions yet.

  
2. Application is debugged with DSF. 
Problem: ClassCastException happens: 

    
org.eclipse.dd.gdb.internal.provisional.service.command.GDBControlDMCont
ext incompatible with
org.eclipse.dd.dsf.debug.service.IRunControl$IExecutionDMContext 
  
Changing GDBControlDMContext class to implement IExecutionDMContext
    
doesn't help much: 
  
I see problems 1 and 2 as in scenario 1, and message
    
'mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]' is displayed. 

GDBControlDMContext is no longer an IExecutionDMContext, ever since we
started to support multi-process debugging.
Obviously, there is a case where the use of GDBControlDMContext has not
been replaced.
Do you have the stack dump of the exception?

  
<--- PROBLEM1 ---> 
Update Policy selection not showing in the variables view menu. 
    
If you want to use update policies, you have to enable them using
Window->Customize Perspective... and should enable the checkbox for
"Debug Update Modes"
